Dying culture of handicraft

Would you make your parents proud if you tell them you wished to be a carpenter? Or let's have a look at, a potter? (Of course, you'd offer something to carry that wand in your hand). sadly, i do not mean that potter. What i'm asking is, wouldn't it outline 'success' for you to manage dirt (which isn't dirty per se), to be able to mould it along with your terribly clean hands and build art? For the remainder of your life?

The story of handicraft is the story of dying art, the story of the death of the artisans of India. It is a saying that an artist lives forever as he is known for his work. But they are struggling for their daily bread. God created hands and from these hands an artist creates mesmerizing creations. One cannot just Google it to learn how it is made because its rear. One can’t get to learn all this in an school. It gets convey from one generation to another.

You would not be shocked to know that doing specifically that's the sole supply of earning and resource for a few individuals in our country. From the barks of a tree to a superbly crafted exotic-looking chair in your drawing area or making one thing aesthetically pleasing out of trash is truly a bread-earning profession for an over sized range of artisans these days. within the West, special artists produce craft objects and that they are thought-about as luxury things. however in India, like several alternative developing countries, it's the most supply of employment for a massive majority of the population, next to agriculture.

The rapid growth of western culture and its acceptability in Indian led to the old traditional handicraft culture at the stage of vulnerability. There are very few people who know the this art and still their importance is not valued. There are very few places left like Dilli haat or handicraft emporium near Jantar Mantar who show cases them.

Change is a natural phenomenon and one must go with the current trend but at the same time we should preserve our very own culture.
