Through delving into the chapters on Cane and Bamboo Weaving, Marble Stone Craft, Saris and Silk, Bandhani, Warli Painting, and other related topics, we uncover the connections that link customs with creativity, legacy with modern significance. Crafting Heritage is a celebration of the hands that define India's creative character, not just a compilation of chapters. It pays homage to the artists who work so hard to create the intricate fabric that is India's cultural heritage with every brushstroke, thread knot, and hand mould.

Book Synopsis Craft Matters by : Soumhya Venkatesan
Download or read book Craft Matters written by Soumhya Venkatesan and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Craft Matters explores the ways in which traditional Indian craft producers engage with the efforts of government and non governmental agencies to preserve, promote and develop their crafts. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork among the Labbai Muslim mat weavers of Pattamadai town in South India, this anthropological study explores the ways in which the famous pattu pai or high-quality silk-like mats of Pattamadai became classified as traditional craft objects, and what this classification has meant to the weavers who are now simultaneously national heroes and (paradoxically) marginalized and suspect Muslims. Handwoven by poor Muslims and bought by elite Tamil Hindus for use in marriage ceremonies and as craft objects by other affluent sections of society, the mats are made within the literature to embody liberal ideals of harmony between Hindus and Muslim, rural poor and urban elites, the past and the present, and tradition and modernity. The mats make their weavers accepted and celebrated within the wider nation, allowing them to act on the national stage. However, this is constantly constrained by the very ways in which craft is conceptualized in India.
