Story Behind Motif

The word Mahi originates from Sanskrit, meaning “fish” or “earth,” and is a popular name in Indian culture symbolizing life and abundance.

In Hinduism, the fish is a symbol of fertility, prosperity, and transformation, famously associated with Matsya, the first avatar of Lord Vishnu, who rescued the sacred Vedas. This Pattachitra-inspired motif brings the fish to life with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, celebrating its cultural and spiritual significance.

Pattachitra

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.
