Talented artist Ishwar Naik's Chittara Art unveils the vibrant tapestry of Deewaru tribal culture in South India. In this indigenous art form, Chittara, the canvas bursts with life as a large chariot-like vehicle becomes a sacred procession for the tribal Goddesses, Maramma and Holeyamma. The intricate patterns and motifs, reminiscent of the lush landscapes that surround Sagar, embody a deep reverence for nature. The matriarchal Deevaru community, the custodians of this art, beautifully depicts their devotion to the divine, with tribal men pulling the chariot and birds escorting the Goddesses. This mesmerizing artwork not only exemplifies a unique cultural phenomenon but also celebrates the rich traditions of South India.

Chittara art is a traditional tribal art form originating from the Deevaru community in the Sagara region of Karnataka, India. This ceremonial painting style, primarily created by women, is renowned for its geometric precision, symmetrical motifs, and deep symbolism, reflecting themes of nature, everyday life, and spiritual beliefs. Traditionally drawn on red mud walls during festivals, weddings, and agricultural rituals to invoke prosperity and divine blessings, Chittara art utilizes 100% natural, eco-friendly materials such as rice paste for white, laterite soil for red, charcoal for black, and turmeric paste for yellow, applied with brushes made from Areca nut tree sticks. Passed down through generations, each line and motif acts as a sacred symbol of protection, prosperity, and cosmic balance, making hase Chittara art a spiritual as well as aesthetic practice.
