There are
two schools of art that developed Kalamkari initially in India and from
individual origins.
Weaving |
Srikalahasti style that
used the pen for drawing and filling in the colours, and with a strong
influence of Hindu culture that specifically focused on religious subjects and
scenes from the epics Ramayana and Mahabharata in its paintings.
Grand Look |
The Machilipatnam style
that came with an Islamic slant, had subjects of paintings mostly depicting
flora and fauna, with floral designs as a backdrop on the fabric.
Trandy Wear |
Both styles that have
popularised Kalamkari have one thing in common – the depictions are fine and
neatly drawn, there is extensive use of organic colours which are fast, there
is no dilution in the skill and quality over the years.
Fancy look |
Today’s Kalamkari has
both these styles merged into one with different facets within the art.
Kalamkari saris showcase the
traditional simplicity, elaborate themes, sharp detailing and attractive motifs
in a host of bright and pleasing hues.
Kalamkari comes off beautifully on a whole lot
of fabrics like silk, cotton, sico art silks such as georgette, chiffon,
Supernet, crepe silk and others.
With vegetable
dyes being used, colours are fast and long lasting. Motifs with trees,
creepers, flowers, leaves, birds are popular subjects.
Gloss on the fabric comes
from the traditional use of some natural substances such as myrobalan, cow’s
milk, cow dung, seeds, plants and crushed flowers in the paintings.
The etching of lines and applying of colour is
done with a finely sharpened short bamboo piece which reflects the devotion and
skill of the ethnic craftsmen to bring about such exquisite masterpieces
despite the limited resources.
A time-consuming and
arduous task, that involves patience and dedication, it is the sharpness of the
lines, the fine details and the picturesque outcome that make this ethnic
effort worth its while.
Kalamkari pure cotton sarees in the printed
variety have block prints featuring floral designs and geometrical patterns
arranged in designer fashion.
Modern
abstract designs have also been included in recent times to resounding applause
from the market.
Ethnic art is like any
other art. It is however the toil and the effort in producing these exceptional
works of detail and flawlessness despite the limited resources available, that
truly give it its value.
There are fine pure Tussar Silk Sarees with
multi-colour Kalamkari. where multi-colour borders and thematic representations
on the pallu or end piece that go well with the central design.
You have the largely plain or lightly adorned
sarees with attractive hand painted bootis all over.
Then you have the veg.dyed
sarees in Dupion silk sarees and Supernet sarees that
have finely marked lines and accentuate the effect of the pictorial
depictions.
