About the Artwork +

Purushottam Swain portrays a mesmerising Saura painting that unveils a captivating world of vibrant colours and intricate patterns. At the centre of the canvas, concentric diamond shapes shine vibrantly, each filled with meticulously crafted designs depicting the lives and stories of the Saura tribe. The colours represent the vivacity and diversity of the Saura community, mirroring the richness of their cultural tapestry. At the centre of the painting, a captivating circle emerges, representing the heart of the Saura tribe. Within this circle, the vibrant lives of the Saura people are depicted in vivid detail. The painting celebrates their vibrant existence, their unity, and their remarkable contributions to the tapestry of human diversity. The centre piece is surrounded by the beauty of the Saura tribe, celebrating their moments in history with nature's vibrancy.

Purusottam Swain blue-tick

Purusottam
Hailing from the village of Raghurajpur (the heritage village of Pattachitra artists), Purusottam Swain is a young 26 year old generational Pattachitra artist who has been painting for the last 40 years since he was in the 4th standard. He has learnt from his father who was also a Pattachitra artist. His work is coveted by patrons across the world, he has received a certificate of appreciation by the Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath and been a part of many events like the Bharat Lok Parv. The name Pattachitra has evolved from the Sanskrit words patta, meaning canvas, and chitra, meaning picture. Originally from Odisha, Pattachitra is thus a painting done on canvas, and is manifested by rich colourful application, creative motifs and designs, and portrayal of simple themes, mostly mythological in depiction. More than anything, the themes are clearly the essence of the art form, conceptualising the meaning of the paintings.

Saura Art


The art-form of Odisha's Saura tribe has hundreds of years of history. Saura, also known as Ikon, are paintings that date back to the epic period of Mahabharata and Ramayana. They are mostly done on red or brown clay walls that were originally inhabited by the Saura people and employ natural colours created from grains, flowers, and other natural materials. These paintings have carried the Saura people's history with them. Not only are these detailed and beautiful images a method for the tribe to describe and document their life, but they also have religious and spiritual importance for the community. In current times, the art form has been adopted to adorn clothes such as sarees and has found an overall decorative approach.
