Discription:-
Gorakhpur, Deoria and Kushinagar are important districts of eastern Uttar Pradesh and have their own identity in terracotta art, and the reason for my visit to the Sunskriti center was to visit the Terracotta Museum, because I wanted to present the art of my region to the world.
Discription:-
Gorakhpur:
Gorakhpur Terracotta art is centuries old and it is famous for its intricate and beautiful designs.
The idol of Maa Kali and other attractive idols are made using special clay found locally, due to which it has a distinctive red-brown color.
The tradition of terracotta in the Gorakhpur region has been going on for generations, and the artisans here make elephants, horses, lamps, and various types of idols.
This art has also been included in the ‘One District One Product’ (ODOP) scheme of our Uttar Pradesh Government.
Gorakhpur’s terracotta has also received the Geographical Indication (GI) tag, which certifies its uniqueness and origin.
Gorakhpur is more famous for terracotta art, but there are also terracotta craftsmen in Deoria and Kushinagar who make different types of decorative items and idols.
Description:-
If you ever visit the rural temple or Devi Maa’s place in these districts of Purvanchal, then the terracotta idol will reflect the local culture and traditions.
Bonus - By the way, Kushinagar is also known for banana fiber products.
In short, Gorakhpur is a major center of terracotta art and has its own distinct style and identity, and Deoria and Kushinagar are also contributing to this art. & sunskriti center Once you visit here, you will want to come back again and again.
