Dancing Girl statue from Mohenjo Daro and the Swamimalai bronze icons.

The History and Techniques of Dhokra Artistry

Possessing a history that stretches back almost 4000 years, dhokra art originated in India's

Indus Valley Civilization. Currently, Odisha, West Bengal and Jharkhand embrace the Dhokra

Damar tribe, the authentic artists of the Dhokra art who work day and night to preserve this art

form. Employing the lost-wax casting process, they craft complex metal sculptures of great

sustainability and quality. Beginning with a wax model covered with clay and heated to enable

the wax to melt and form a mold forms the main basis of the method. Later they cast it in liquid

metal, where the mold takes up the desired shape and then cooled, to deliver the best of our

tradition. Tradition, creativity, and innovation are purely intertwined within this work of metal,

illustrating the merging of our rich history and even modern and contemporary thoughts.
