About the Artwork +

In artist Bhanu Bhai Chittara's mesmerizing Mata Ni Pachedi Painting, the Tree of Life, also known as Akshaya Vat, emerges as a profound representation of Hindu mythology and the divine Trimurti: Lord Brahma, the creator; Lord Vishnu, the preserver; and Lord Shiva, the destroyer. This artwork bridges the realms of life and death, heaven and earth, inviting viewers into a world where the tree's roots delve deep into the underworld. Upon its vast branches, one finds an exquisite tapestry of flowers, leaves, and avian motifs, each symbolizing ethereal spirits that dance amongst the boughs. As the tree's mighty trunk breaks through the earthly plane, it ascends toward the heavens, underscoring the harmonious connection between terrestrial and celestial realms. The upper branches, intricately curled and intertwined, serve as a visual ode to the intricate interplay between earth and the divine. Chittara's work serves as a potent reminder of the inextricable interdependence of life on earth, celebrating the vital union of flora and fauna. With a symphony of colors, intricate patterns, and a narrative steeped in mythology, this piece beckons the viewers to explore the profound harmony between art, nature, and spirituality.

Mata Ni Pachedi


Mata ni Pachedi is a revered art form and religious tradition that originated amid the nomadic Vaghari community in Gujarat, India. The Vagharis were nomadic farmers living along the edge of the Sabarmati River. Mata ni Pachedi is their unique expression of devotion to the divine mother goddess, particularly Mataji, or Amba Mata. Traditionally, the term Mata ni Pachedi refers to the cloth used to cover the idol of the goddess during rituals and processions. The designs of the cloth often feature intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and depictions of the goddess in various forms, surrounded by symbols of auspiciousness and protection. Legend Legend has it that Mata ni Pachedi originated as a form of worship among the Vaghari community, who were traditionally devotees of the mother goddess. They believed that the goddess would protect them from harm and grant their wishes, leading to a deep-seated reverence for the goddess. Style and Technique The art form is characterized by its bold lines, stylized figures, and attention to detail, with each painting serving as a visual devotion to the goddess's divine attributes and blessings. The mata is always depicted in the center whereas there are also representations of singers, musicians, shamans, animals, and birds that seem to dance and fly in celebration of the goddess. Each mata has their own mount and attributes like Mamai mata sita atop a camel whereas Goddess Vahanvati travels in a boat. The traditional Mata ni Pachedi strictly adheres to two colors made of natural dyes- black and deep red. Mata ni Pachedi paintings are typically executed on cloth using natural pigments derived from plants, minerals, and other organic sources. Simply, the iron used in making black outlines of the work takes around 15 days to process. Later red color is filled using brushes made from bamboo. After the completion of the painting, it is washed and dried around the river. The colored dye is finally fixed with mordant and dried up in the sun.
