About the Artwork +

Dinesh Molela makes Lord Krishna play his flute amongst cows in this Terracotta wall plate. He was known as the friend and protector of cows as he grew up as a cow herder. As Krishna plays the flute, the cows are mesmerized by the sounds and come next to him to revel in its mysticism. The flute symbolizes the human heart made hollow through pain and sorrow. This hollow heart is a flute for the Lord through which he passes his love to us.

    Dilip Chittara

    Dilip Chittara is a 5th generation Mata ni Pachedi artist. Dilip ji is both a national and state award winner. His is one of the 10 families left who are practicing this art and reside in Ashoknagar(near Ahmedabad in Gujarat).

     

    Mata ni pachedi literally means “behind the mother goddess”, and is a cloth that constitutes a temple of the goddess. When people of the nomadic Vaghari community of Gujarat were barred from entering temples, they made their own shrines with depictions of the Mother Goddess on cloth. This ingenuous solution is believed to be the origin of Mata ni Pachedi, the sacred art, which is now revered by all.

     



    Art Form

    Terracotta

    Teracotta art has been practised in India for thousands of years, dating back to the Indus Valley civilization. Clay is used to make earthenware, figurines, and other ornamental items. Clay is dried and then fried at extremely high temperatures to allow it to take shape. The artform also has a spiritual importance, as it is claimed in Hinduism that this material uses the five components of the universe: air, water, fire, ether, and earth. States including as Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, and Rajasthan have a long and illustrious history with the art form.
