Synopsis:

Pichhwai are devotional pictures found on cloth or paper which portray Lord Krishna. They originated in the Deccan, India, and the villages of Aurangabad and Nathdwara in Rajasthan state. The purpose of Pichhwais, other than artistic appeal, is to narrate tales of Krishna.

As part of their art exhibition, Intersection, Canvas and Weaves is organising a Pichwai Workshop to commemorate the craft.
