About the Craft : Phad painting is a 10-century-old style of religious scroll painting and folk painting, practised in Rajasthan. This painting style is traditionally done on a long piece of cloth or canvas called Phad. Traditionally, the narratives of the folk deities of Rajasthan, mainly Pabuji and Devnarayan are depicted on the pads. The Bhopas, the priest-singers traditionally carry the painted phads along with them and use these as the mobile temples of the folk deities, who are worshipped by the Rebari community of the region.
