About the Book
Crafts Atlas of India: A Journey Through Time, Tradition, and Art
Mapping India’s rich and diverse craft traditions was no small feat—it was a mammoth 11-year journey undertaken by the Dastkari Haat Samiti, an association dedicated to uplifting artisans and preserving their legacy. Over the years, new crafts were born, old skills revived, and some traditions, sadly, faded away. Yet, the spirit of Indian craftsmanship—resilient, ever-evolving, and deeply rooted in history—continues to flow like a mighty river, changing course yet never ceasing to exist.
This extraordinary book is a visual and intellectual treasure, featuring artistic craft maps of each Indian state, meticulously created using traditional art forms as backdrops. These maps are more than just representations; they are living archives that document handmade textiles, folk arts, and regional crafts, offering both an academic resource and a breathtaking visual experience.
During the documentation process, three new states were born, further enriching the narrative of India’s dynamic cultural heritage. From first-hand field research to second-hand historical records, every detail has been carefully curated, making this book an invaluable guide for designers, historians, artists, educators, and craft enthusiasts alike.
Whether used as an educational resource, a design inspiration, or a stunning wall display, Crafts Atlas of India is a rare and unparalleled documentation of the nation’s cultural history, artistic brilliance, and enduring craftsmanship.
