#textiletuesday : Equally coveted, from the golden age of Mughal patronage and the English rage in the 1700s for chic, cheap Indian floral cottons, from the design meccas of East Asia to the far flung capitals of Western Europe, the story of Indian design, pattern and aesthetics is one of unparalleled beauty. And its reason, its unmitigated desire. The almost avarice for this design dialect finds its first melodic utterance in the ancient Indian craft of Block printing.

While printing designs onto fabric most likely originated in China about 4500 years ago, it was in the Indian subcontinent where hand-blocked fabrics reached their highest visual expression. An incomparable knowledge of natural plant dyes helped India to create much sought after and complex designs for the textile cognoscenti of the world.

Block prints for the actual textile base are carved by the human hand. Making each pattern upon every fabric a signature of the artisan who creates it. A forever classic stamp of the rich artisanal heritage of the karigars. From minor flower patters to complicated jaals of flora and fauna, the art of block printing has no equal rival. In beauty and precision. In colour and pattern. The blocked fabric tells its own tale of stupendous art and magnificence.

And while the world flocks to India in search of esoteric poetry, they often find it in a language of the block. In endless dialects of colour.

#funfriday : It’s almost the weekend, let’s do some Bhangra! 🌹

Every move in bhangra is a spark of vigour, a bolt of ecstasy. And before long, its energy takes over and engulfs the spectators with the fire of undiluted joie de vivre.

In Punjab, nothing electrifies a celebration better than the swag of the bhangra. Wearing brightly coloured turbans or pags decorated with ‘turlas’ over equally vibrant kurtas and jugis, the traditional waistcoat, and a loosely fitting ‘chadar’ wrapped around their waist, as men line up for their performances, the surge in energy is palpable. The perfect expression of a hearty people and a flamboyant culture that is larger-than-life and brimming with exuberance.

Becoming a trademark of celebration, the dance form enjoys a vivid status not just in the Punjab, but across India and internationally. Foot-tapping Bhangra beats are welcomed with fervour in any ‘sangeet’ today. Such is the magnetism and appeal of this Punjabi tap, that it is rare to witness someone who doesn’t begin to feel alive and dance along. Taking home some of its hope, joy and revelry.
