Outside of Bengal, the Bengalee Cultural Association celebrations rank among the best and most awaited, says Ranjit Paul, General Secretary, Bengalee Cultural Association.
As part of the Golden Jubilee year the Bengalee Cultural Association is making the celebrations distinctive by going for traditional decorations from artists brought from Bengal using Pattachitra or Patachitra. Pattachitra is a traditional cloth-based scroll painting that has its origins in the states of West Bengal and Odisha. The art form is popular for its intricate details and mythological or folklore narratives that are inscribed on a piece of cloth. The people who create Patachitra artworks are called Patuas. Unlike other traditional artists, Patuas sing Patua sangeet while displaying their artwork. It's a style of explaining the actual meaning or story behind the artwork.
