Event summary

Highlights

  • Exhibition featuring over 50 Pichwai artworks
  • Practical workshops led by ninth-generation artist Jayesh Sharma
  • Showcase of traditional materials including natural stone pigments and gold leaf
The exhibition, titled Parampara, showcases a curated selection of Pichwai paintings that bridge the gap between 17th-century temple traditions and contemporary home decor. Visitors can view works by prominent artists such as Jayesh Sharma, Shehzaad Ali Sherani, and members of the Soni family. The collection includes pieces created with traditional natural stone pigments, silver leaf, and gold leaf, featuring classic iconography like Shrinathji, lotuses, and cows.

Complementing the exhibition, ninth-generation artist Jayesh Sharma conducts workshops at CCT Spaces. These sessions offer hands-on experience in drawing and painting on A4 paper, aimed at making the intricate art form accessible to beginners. Organized by MeMeraki, the event highlights the evolution of Pichwai from its origins as devotional cloth scrolls to its current status as a sought-after decorative art.
