About Perumal Sthapati

Perumal sthapati was born at Thrissur in Kerala. He had no plan to be a sculptor when he came to Chennai in 1972. Under the guidance of Ganapati Sthapati, scores of silpis were brought from different parts of Tamil Nadu at the time when many temples were coming up in Poompuhar, India. Here, Ganapati Sthapati spotted the innate talent and striking personal elegance of Perumal. “You stay here with me,” were Ganapati Sthapati’s words that changed Perumal’s life.
Ganapati Sthapati, Perumal has reached dizzying heights. “I can read my guru’s heart, his taste, his mind and expectations,” Perumal says. “He is a clever taskmaster, yet surprisingly lovable. He can smell even the slightest errors. I feel that I am only a novice in front of him.” Ganapati Sthapati has returned the respect, saying, “Perumal is the greatest carver in South India today.
