About the Artwork +

Eminent artist Sai Kiran's Cheriyal Wall Plate artwork unveils a captivating narrative through vibrant hues and rustic charm. This traditional artform, hailing from the historic Cheriyal village in India, encapsulates a timeless story of rural life. Kiran skillfully combines the color theory to breathe life into this bullock cart scene, where two mighty bulls lead a journey through a flourishing garden. The rich ochres and earthy browns of the cart and its rural setting are enlivened by striking reds, blues, and yellows, creating a vivid contrast that dances with energy. The intricate motifs and patterns narrate tales of harvest and abundance, making this wall plate a cherished embodiment of cultural heritage.

    Sai Kiran Dhanalakota blue-tick

     Sai Kiran, a 27-year-old artist, is credited with carrying on the history of the Dhanalakota family, the last practising family for Cheriyal Scroll painting. A 160-year-old Cheriyal scroll painted by his great-great grandpa is also on display in a museum in Paris, providing insight into his family's past. With the market for Cheriyal scrolls decreasing, his parents advised him to study rather than pursue painting, but Sai Kiran obtained a degree in fine arts to acquire new art techniques to modernise and make his work relevant in today's times. He wishes the Cheriyal scroll painters knew more about the stories they are painting, because the storytellers for these paintings are autonomous and add their own colour to the stories, but he makes an attempt to study these stories, and his personal favourite is Gaurapuranama's, about Toddy Tappers (Wine tappers). 'We replace our phones every year, our phone covers every two months, change is such a constant, therefore our work needs to stay up with it and adapt,' Sai Kiran says.



    Art Form

    Cheriyal scroll

    These scrolls are painted in narrative format similar to a film roll or even comic strips, and depict stories from the Indian mythology as well as the shorter stories related to the Puranas and Epics.

    Cheriyal Scroll Painting is a popular and modified version of Nakashi art, considered highly rich in the local motifs. This art form is unique to the state of Telangana and made mostly in Hyderabad currently. This traditional art form is considered an inseparable part of the profession comprising the story-telling and balladeer community called Kaki Padagollu. They have displayed these scrolls which are also accompanied by music and dance.
