Kalamkari is from ‘Kalam’
(pen) and ‘Kari’ (craftsmanship), words taken from the Persian for the art of
hand painting done on fabrics with the use of a pen and extended to include
hand block printing.

There are two schools of art that developed Kalamkari initially
in India and from individual origins.
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.

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.

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.
Today’s Kalamkari has both styles
merged into one with different facets within the art.
Kalamkari on traditional
fabrics like the salwar kamiz and saree showcases the simplicity, elaborate
themes, sharp detailing and attractive motifs in a host of bright and pleasing
hues.
Kalamkaricomes
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.
