Product & Illustration
The 2022 Candour Calendar, is part of a yearly release by Candour On Canvas.
This year, we celebrate the endearing and heartwarming stories of the Khasi folk.
Each illustration is a depiction of unique, modern day Khasi experiences that are a testament to culture being embedded into modern society. The themes touch upon the connection of the Khasis with nature, ancient science and the role of women.
Originally painted on ‘Mon Shugu’ paper, made by the women of the Monpa tribe of Arunachal Pradesh, this paper is part of a 1000-year-old paper making craft of the region. The use of this paper in the ilustration process is what gives each image a unique texture.
