Madhubani

Madhubani, or Mithila art, is a traditional Indian art form from Bihar, known for its intricate geometric patterns, floral motifs, and depictions of nature and Hindu gods. Typically made with natural dyes like indigo and turmeric, Madhubani is practiced by women in the Mithila region and passed down through generations. Recognized by UNESCO, it features bold lines and vibrant colors, often adorning walls, floors, and clothing. While modern artists experiment with new themes, the art remains a vital expression of Mithila's cultural heritage.
