About Craft

Pattachitra is a traditional painting style of Odisha and it is known for its intricate designs and vibrant colours.

The name Pattachitra has evolved from the Sanskrit word ‘patta’, meaning cloth, and ‘chitra’, meaning picture. This art form is believed to have originated as early as the 12th century and is one of the oldest and most famous living art forms.

Pattachitra is a highly valued craft form in Odisha and has been passed down from generation to generation. Today, it continues to be an important part of the cultural heritage of the state and is widely recognized for its traditional designs and high-quality craftsmanship. These paintings are highly sought after by tourists and art collectors and are considered to be one of the most important forms of traditional art in India.
