Giant Rangoli

Saturday 11 June 2011
Guild Hall Square, Southampton
All Day



In a race against the clock ‘art attack’ style come along with your friends and family (all ages welcome) and get creative using unusual materials such as lentils and spices!


In Indian cultures, all guests and visitors occupy a very special place and a Rangoli (meaning row of colours), is an expression of this warm hospitality. A Rangoli is a geometric design, traditionally drawn on the floor outside a front door using colourful powders to welcome people into a building.


Art Asia is working with the leading Rangoli artist, Ranbir Kaur. Ranbir has produced the largest Rangoli for the Guinness Book of Records. Her work has been displayed all over the UK and she has toured with Womad Festival creating work at their various sites around the world.
