ABOUT THE ARTFORM
Mata ni Pachedi means “behind the Mother Goddess” in Gujarati. Pachedi is a religious textile folk art. It is also known as the Kalamkari of Gujarat, given the similarity of technique. It features the Mother Goddess and her stories at the center, the remaining cloth is then filled with images of devotees along with flora and fauna.
It is also known as Kalamkari of Gujarat, given it's similarity to the Kalamkari of Andhra Pradesh. Both the art styles use a bamboo nib to sketch and paint the designs onto the fabric which is treated using harad powder.
WHAT WE LEARN
In this month long intensive workshop, we will discover the canopy of the makeshift tents created for Mata. We will work on the concept of these ceilings and understand it in a wider sense looking at various examples both traditional and contemporary, discussing different layout variations and helping you create your own composition as well.
As it works as a ceiling, it usually has circular composition with main Mata at centre. Other stories, local legends are depicted around her. There could be multiple goddesses represented in the chandarvo as well.
During the workshop, we will learn 5 - 6 mata swaroops, multiple local legends, basic motifs including male female figures, animals , borders and others.
This is going to be the biggest size that we have done till now and there is going to be a great amount of learning.
It would be easier to work on fabric for this one given ease of handling. Artist will be working in traditional manner with natural colors. A kit can be sent to you on request.
