DAMODAR FATESINGH

The suitcases Damodar disclosed a world of painted stories.The canvas is made by sticking together with two layers of cloth –usually old saris. Then the canvas is covered with a white stone powder, very similar to plaster, mixed with glue made of tamarind. After drying for few days in sunlight, the canvas is finely polished with stones. The surface has to be smooth and consistent. All around the year hundreds of rituals take place in the temple. For a rite the wooden idols of the Gods were bathed in see water, but they caught a cold, so they had to undergo a fortnight “auruvedic” treatment. Painters were asked to recreate the idols on canvas and temporarily replace the wood idols so that people could reach Gods.
