Stake attention in this memory
The image displays two newspaper clippings, likely mounted or framed, from the "STAR OF MYSORE" dated April 11, 2021. The left clipping, titled "Award presentation, felicitation and book release event held," shows a group of people on a stage during an indoor event. Several men in formal attire are standing, while a man and a woman, dressed in traditional Indian attire (the woman in a purple and gold outfit), are seated in front, receiving awards. The scene is one of an official ceremony, with various individuals being honored. The accompanying text details the event as organized by JSS Mahavidyapeetha at Navajyothi Auditorium, mentioning Minister Aravind Limbavali, awardees Mahanthappa Nandura, Radha Mallappa, Eshwar N. Joshi, and K.S. Mahadevaswamy, and the release of five books. The right clipping, titled "M. Veerappa Endowment Award for city's seashell artist," features a woman identified as Radha Mallappa, standing beside a very large, intricate idol of Lord Ganesha made entirely of seashells. The idol, predominantly white with subtle coloring, sits on an ornate base adorned with elephant figures. Radha Mallappa is holding a framed certificate, presumably her Guinness Book of World Records certificate. The setting appears to be an exhibition space or a private museum. The article highlights Mallappa's achievement as a seashell artist, her 22-ft tall, 420-kg seashell Ganesha idol recognized by Guinness World Records as the "Largest Sea Shell Sculpture," and her receiving the M. Veerappa Endowment Award. It also mentions her home-cum-museum, "Kalashree Bhandar," in Hanumanthanagar, Mysuru.
