Art is not just a play of colors—it's a conversation across time, a revival of tradition, and sometimes, a quiet revolution. In this episode, we bring you the story of a man who didn’t just create art, but resurrected a dying tradition and gave it new meaning.
Padma Shri Ashok Kumar Biswas, a visionary artist from the heartland of Bihar, breathed life back into the ancient Tikuli art—a craft rooted in the Mauryan era, once fading into obscurity. With a brush in his hand and purpose in his heart, he turned delicate glass into storytelling canvases.
But his impact didn’t stop at the canvas. He trained over 8,000 women, empowering them to become financially independent through this once-forgotten art. From local workshops to international exhibitions, his work became a symbol of India’s cultural resilience.
