#thread #dhokra #dhokraart #BastarKiBaate #बस्तरकीबातें #Dhokra Dhokra is the craft of non–ferrous metal casting using the lost-wax technique. This technique has been in use in India for over 5000 yrs and is still being used in many parts of India. @jeetsingharya @rajat4bansal 
The famous dancing girl of Mohenjodaro is one of the earliest examples of the lost-wax technique made by the people of the Sindhu-Saraswati civilisation. Lost-wax technique was called मधूच्छिष्टविधान in ancient Sanskrit treatises on Shilpshastra. #BastarKiBaate #बस्तरकीबातें
Dhokra artisans from the Kondagaon district of Bastar use the technique of lost-wax hollow casting to create exquisite objects. Witnessed this entire age-old process in the workshop of Rajendra Baghel, national award winning Dhokra artisan. #BastarKiBaate #बस्तरकीबातें
#thread #minimalism a friend had shared this meaningful meme, a picture with the legend, ‘the less you own, the less it owns you’. It was a powerful statement; one that has stayed with me. @jeetsingharya @BastarDistrict @sundar_IPS @rajat4bansal #bastarkibaate #minimalism
There is a lot of talk these days about minimalism, particularly among the neo-rich urban crowd who are burdened with the ‘problem of plenty’. We live in a society that celebrates consumption and accumulation. I myself am a hoarder of all things handmade and beautiful.
As a result, my home feels like a museum and my closet is overflowing with beautiful, hand-woven sarees. But even beauty is bondage. I realise that now, as I take my baby steps on the long road of #अनासक्ती
