Godawari Dutta

Godawari Dutta is a master of the 'Kachni' (Line Art) style of Madhubani painting. Unlike the colorful Bharni style, Kachni relies on intricate black and red lines to create stunningly detailed patterns. A Padma Shri recipient, she has not only created masterpieces but also trained thousands of women, ensuring the survival of this ancient technique. Her art is a meditation in precision and patience.
