| Papier Mache craft uses waste paper pulp as the basic raw material, sometimes combined with starch. The paper pulp is then given various forms and shapes, limited only by the imagination of the artist. A wooden mould, which applies pressure on the pulp shapes the pulp to form beautiful art items.

This primitive method results in a unique form of papier mache art, which is slightly rough in nature but offers a special insight into tribal arts. |

Hindu masks are often used in rituals and fashioned after mythological non-human beings, often animals. Masks are worn to accompany oral tradition, and the carvers can creatively express a village story or concept through the art form.
