BLACK-HOUSE-MURAL-PAINTING

For quite some time Kala Bhavana student Vishnu, under the tutelage of Nanda Dulal Mukherjee is engaged with wall painting a portion of Kalobari, following the earlier techniques used. After a few failures where the painted portions simply peeled off, Vishnu has ultimately succeeded after due modification of techniques applied; providing him with an excellent opportunity to follow rather ancient techniques of wall painting. I watched him off and on at his work, and really appreciate the venture taken up by Kala Bhavana with a very special mention for Nanda Dulal Mukherjee, faculty Kala Bhavana.

As I mentioned before, it is very refreshing to come across nice souls like Bijoy Mukherjee and Nanda Dulal Mukherjee, whose engagements with society are strictly not only for personal gains, as is the general norms in Santiniketan now.
