Yeah their problem seems to be exposure. They live in an area where electricity isn't affordable which tells me they live in a very poor area, which is a problem when you're trying to sell art. This means they have to reach out online and market themselves, but as far as I can tell they only have an Instagram page which isn't going to grant them much exposure. Some people here are saying they have their own website but even that isn't going to do them much good if people aren't searching for it, and very few people are going to go online and search for "bone carving". I would be willing to bet that if they had someone who knew what they were doing that could properly market their business to other countries and wealthier areas of India, they could make a lot of money.

The artisan's suffering started during British era. They didn't want artistic exports reducing their market share. It was cheaper to manufacture cheap white clothes than artisanal embroidery. India's new government is helping a lot of artists. They have make in India initiative and micro business loans. These artists kinda falls in different category though. Their material is bone which requires killing an animal. Since India believes in preservation of life, they won't find bones. If these guys switched the material to wood or marble, they will still make a lot of money. Their skill is carving, transferable to different material

@shubhamjohri290

2 жыл бұрын

@@cu7695 Agreed, except that I think they don't actually kill animals for bones, they source bones from slaughterhouses where animals are killed for meat. I think there should be plenty of bones for this single family of bone carvers, so I don't think it is a question of diminishing supplies but of diminished demand. The general Indian buyer would find bones repulsing and these articles expensive. So switching to marble and wood is a good idea -- wood sells for cheap and should allow them to preserve bone carving.

@cinnamorollfood9867

2 жыл бұрын

I think the issue with switching to wood is that it wouldn’t be bone carving anymore. And there’s no wood that gives that bright white colour. Which in my opinion makes it look a lot better. I think trying to switch to e-commerce would be the best decision.

Indian is master of craving, that why indian-Pakistani temple, mosque, palace, fort and castle are beautiful made and built

The hardwork put into these carvings are so remarkable. I love the 'Still standing' videos because they really show the talent and determination of people across the world, and making sure that their creations don't go unnoticed

Fun fact, my Indian boyfriend taught me that if you have burnt on food in a pot / pan I just put baking soda in the bottom about a half inch cover with water about 2 inches maybe three and boil it. It actually dislodges

He’s going to make it. He’s an entrepreneur for sure. ❤️ Teaching classes, making moves to go online. Love it. The times of passing down a craft through generations is sadly coming to an end. 😞 There were great artists for just about everything at one point or another. At least with technology and manufacturing advances taking away most of the arts markets with cheaper alternatives, there are some new ways for artists to create incredible pieces. I think he has the right idea though, about going online. That’s basically the only way to reach the smaller market for such rare art. I hope a link gets posted here soon with his website, or at least an etsy shop 😂. Truly hoping for the best for this family, and their business. And I hope the other families who couldn’t stay with it are doing ok…

A website would be nice, but what they really need is marketing and exposure. This video definitely helped a lot so that's a great start, but if you could find a way to shine a light on their craft and get the word out to people then that would be infinitely more valuable than a website. Unfortunately a website wouldn't accomplish that because they would need people to actively be searching for key words that take people to their website instead of being buried under thousands of search results. They do have an Instagram and Facebook page, so that's good.

Definitely foreigners will appreciate this art. Really look awesome collectibles.

This is really a great video. It has a long history of heritage craftsmanship. I have to sigh the wisdom of ancient people. After watching it, I feel amazing. I hope that more traditional crafts can be known to future generations and can be well protected. and inheritance.
