Kumartuli
Kumartuli, the potters and clay modelling artists colony on the banks of the River Hooghly in north Calcutta is your typical tourist destination. There's no doubting it, the place has a very different energy and feel...very vibrant and yet extremely laidback...very positive too. It's world of its own, what creative arts settlements must be. There's a lot of controversy about its renovation, and the displacement and rehabilitation of the stake-holders. Yet, it's always a photo enthusiast's joy. Pictures are from their new rehab location and the original colony.
