Radha & Krishna : Madhubani

Embark on a voyage through Madhubani’s masterpieces, where nature’s palette unveils. Henna, marigold, cow dung, and more grace canvases, forged in eco-friendly hues. Aparajita’s azure, culled locally, enkindles blues. Handcrafted labor and blossoms, a thriftier choice than store-bought pigments, render vibrant chronicles. Cow dung sheathes the canvas, thwarting insects, while paper kissed by cow dung evokes mural heritage. Fine brushes of yore, twined threads on sticks, now meet store aisles. Black pens detail with finesse. Each piece whispers sagas, facilitating evolution. Geometrics enthrall, layered with ceremonial motifs, capturing life’s essence. GI-lauded, these plant-born tapestries evoke history, ochre and lampblack entwined with time, portraying sagas of Ramayana and beyond.
