The word Kumud is derived from Sanskrit, meaning “lotus” or “moonlight on water,” and is celebrated in Indian culture for its purity and elegance.

The lotus holds a special place in Hinduism, symbolizing beauty, spiritual awakening, and divine grace. Often associated with deities like Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu, it represents rising above challenges to bloom in perfection.

Indigenous to the eastern Indian states of West Bengal and Odisha, the folk art form of Pattachitra is a reflection of India’s glorious past.

The artists - who are called Patuas - have immortalised religious, mythical, and folklore instances in scrolls of fabric. They use bright bold natural colours and a distinctive art style that is rooted in rural tradition.

In a traditional performance, the Patuas unfurl the scroll as they sing their Pater Gaan and mesmerise the audience as they transport them to a land of myth and legends.
