About Artwork
A monument of ageless craftsmanship, Sohrai paintings are created on mud canvases using brushes made from organic resources. This traditional tribal art form, which originated in Jharkhand, India, is based on methods that have been passed down through the years. Artists recreate natural and mythical settings by combining earthy paints derived from clay and plants. With every brushstroke, evoking times past, a story of ethnic diversity is woven. Representing the connection between art and the earth, the canvas tends to be of organic materials.
The appeal of Sohrai painting is found in its devotion to traditional techniques, which yields works of art that are both aesthetically pleasing and evocative of bygone eras, guaranteeing the art form's continued existence.
