Community Brew and Ritual Offering by Kishor Gayen

Description

Kishor Gayen paints the gathering that comes before a festival in Community Brew and Ritual Offering. Rows of figures prepare and share handia, the rice beer brewed in Jharkhand villages, alongside mahua, made from the flowers of the mahua tree. Both drinks are offered in ritual before they are shared. The figures move in a steady line across the paper, so the brewing, offering and sharing read as one continuous act. Natural colours on handmade paper keep the palette soft and earthy.

Why does this painting stand out?

• Hand-painted by Kishor Gayen in natural colours on handmade paper.

• It records a community ritual of Jharkhand that rarely appears in painting.
