The Banjara - an ethnic group composed of nomadic tribes, centered
in the Indian state of Rajasthan - are renowned for their highly
colourful textiles, often embellished with mirrors and intricate
embroidery and produced from natural resources. Created to satisfy
the needs of the tribe, occasionally incorporating shells, beads,
mirrors, and tassels for decoration, the Banjara technique is
unique in India and a celebration of the strength of the women who
practise it. Recent genetic and linguistic evidence supports ties
between the Banjara and the European Roma, eliciting much debate
about the exact nature of the connection. This is the first book to
be devoted to the traditions and embroidery of the Banjara,
illuminating their history and investigating their links with the
European Roma. Photographs by documentary photographer Tim
McLaughlin illustrate the highest quality pieces of Banjara
embroidery and costume, both historic and contemporary, and are
accompanied by a foreword by Rosemary Crill, a senior curator at
the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and an appendix of line
drawings.
