Indian Art
In this film...of the WPC and the carving workshop, we can see the variety of Hindu figures, as well as figures from other religions.

Carving
In the WPC, within the frame of “Saving Indian Art” traditional Indian Arts and Crafts are promoted.

Figure Painting
The carved figures are painted by women. This provides a good possibility to improve the life quality of women, particularly widows and unmarried women.

Cement Figures
Hindu figures are not only carved from wood: they are also modeled from cement, thus becoming longer lasting and water resistant.

Work Places
Sadly, there are not so many Indians who still possess traditional craft skills. The WPC offers work and educational facilities for training artisans, so that they may become living exemplars of Indian art and craft.
