{"title":"Kerala Mural","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKerala Mural art has its roots tracing back to the Chera Dynasty between the eighth and tenth centuries, though it truly flourished under royal patronage from the 14th to 16th centuries. The tradition grew alongside the Bhakti movement, when devotion itself became the source for artistic expressions. The murals draw inspiration mostly from Hindu mythology, with scenes from the Mahabharata, the Puranas and the lives of gods such as Vishnu and Shiva. Figures move in graceful, dynamic postures, and the story often unfolds across connected panels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe materials used for this art form are as unique as its theme. Artists prepare walls with lime plaster, sketch an outline, then build up colour in layers, pigments of red oxide, yellow soil, green stone and indigo, bound with coconut water or tree sap.
