Patachitra, an ancient folk art of Bengal , is appreciated by art lovers all over the world for its effortless style of drawings, colours, lines and space usage. The word Pata derived from the Sanskrit word Patta means cloth. The painters are called Patuas. Patuas do not just paint, they also sing as they unfurl the painting scroll to show it to the audience. These songs are known as Pater Gaan. Patuas generally use natural colours, which they procure from various trees, leaves, flowers and clays.
Patachitra has been mentioned in Puranas, Epics, Ancient Literatures and Historical Descriptions. ââ¬ËPatuas` and ââ¬ËChitrakars` have been referred to in literary works dating back to more than 2500 years.
The Patuas have learned to make diverse products using their painting skills. They are also using their art form as tool for social communication. The art form has become a means of livelihood. This has led to reduction of poverty and most importantly empowerment of the women in the community.
In Paschim Medinipur District, the Patuas mainly live in village Naya at Pingla Block.
Patachitra Shilpa of Pingla is very popular throughout our Country and also around the world. Our lady Patuas have attended several fairs in India and abroad.
