Story Behind Motif

The term Raag is the Sanskrit translation of Melody, which makes every celebration complete. Through expressions and storytelling, Raag is a form of cultural presentation.

From tribals to weddings of deities of Hindu mythology can be seen in Pattachitra. Plucked from weddings of folklore, Patuas have captured people enchanted by the Raag (melody) of a wedding.

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.
