Indian
Arts Workshops
Fevicryl Hobby Ideas in association with the KalaGhoda Association
presents workshops for children from 7 – 14 years on four
different Indian Arts such as Warli, Madhubani, Minakari and
Lipan.
The Warli paintings are a Tribal Art form of Maharashtra which
is painted on the mud walls of the houses of the tribals using
stick and rice paste. The figures are made by using simple geometrical
shapes like Triangles, Circles and Lines. The Madhubani paintings
have their origin from the Madhubani District of Bihar. These
types of paintings use figures from the Indian Mythological
Characters and are generally done with outline techniques. The
Minakari art is from Gujarat and is done on aluminum foil with
embossing and enameling technique. The figures depicted through
this art form are very decorative. The Lipan art form originates
from Rajasthan and is used on the interior walls of the houses.
The work is done with the dough made with cow dung and whitening
powder, studded with lots of mirror pieces.
Experts in the field of art such as Subhash Awchat, Bina Aziz,
Jenny Bhatt, Gurcharan Singh, Vipta Kapadia and Brinda Miller
