Ex4- Research in Marasandra, DAY 1

We visited a village called Marasandra, a place. No information about the place we started to explore around the village. The first thing we noticed a man making pots. We observed his techniques and asked him about his life. He had started making pots from when he was a child and it was passed on to his children. Their house and their work place where the same.  The broken pots were used as base during the baking of pots.

We explored further to and saw his son making Ganesha Idols. He was making idols for the Gnanesh chaturti festival. The usually finish making 10 idols in 2 days and color them using natural colors. Further we noticed they also made idols using paper and also used grains to decorate the idols. The unused idols were again repaired and kept for sale.

                                            

 Further we saw a shop where they where making brass murtis and further on our way to the lake we saw a grape yard. We reached the lake where the potters remove the clay from. We observed around and noticed many fields.
