Description

Lippan art is a traditional mud-relief work that incorporates mirrors and adorns the walls of traditional homes of the rural communities of Gujarat. This Lippan art installation is a contemporary take on the traditional craft of Gujarat, celebrating the cultural heritage of Kutch. The geometric designs and mirror inlays create striking visual effects in Lippan work, building on the dynamism of semblance and balance. Instead of using mud, the work involves plaster of paris, which provides a long-lasting, permanent nature to this work. This piece preserves the essence of Lippan art and celebrates its timeless beauty and craftsmanship, while bringing a piece of Gujarat’s artistic legacy into modern spaces.
