Once you step into the world of Rajasthan, you slowly begin to decode its many motifs. It’s a quest of sorts, for art in the city of Rajasthan exists everywhere- from markets to streets, to the forts and their staircases. With vibrant prints influenced from arid landscapes to the rich technicolour visions of elephants, parrots, peacocks, flowers, lotus, women carrying matkaas and everything you can possibly imagine. All of these have come together squeezed into Rajasthan’s rich handloom arts.
From representations of flower buds to wave-like patterns on the tie-dyed leheriya fabrics, it is an art that celebrates intricacy, beauty and culture. In a first, as a part of Rajasthan Diwas, the Rajasthan Handloom show, is set to celebrate the very essence of Rajasthan art, in the quintessential Hawa Mahal on 29th March i.e today, starting 6:00 PM.
