  • A Study of Patta Painting in Orissa
    JASO 29/3 (1998): 197-211 FOLK ART AT THE CROSSROADS OF TRADITION AND MODERNITY: A STUDY OF PATTA PAINTING IN ORISSA MAMA TA TRIPA THY P ATTA painting, or patta chitra, is one of the typical regional arts of the coastal state of Orissa in eastern India. Like any other form of painting, irrespective of time and space, it possesses its own set of meanings and purposes. In particular, it expresses some of the religious and mythological aspects of Oriya culture, focus­ ing on the Hindu epics in general, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, and the Jagannath cult in particular. Patta painting is of linear design, vegetable pigments being applied to a spe­ ciaJIy prepared cloth using a brush. Although overtly religious, it does not simpJy express a set of religious ideas or values and is much more than a merely visual art to be looked at and be appreciated: it expresses a whole set of beliefs and practices relating to life and death held by the artisans themselves. Traditionally it was prac­ tised only by the Chitrakara caste as their caste occupation. However, although it has retained its basic characteristics, it has been affected by the advent of science and technology as well as other aspects of modernization in the twentieth century. This has had an impact in terms of technology, the materials used, commercializa­ tion, and the use of the craft. To some extent, therefore, patta painting is at the 198 Mamata Tripathy crossroads of tradition and modernity, a situation that heralds a uncertain future for the craft.
