With development and growing trade relations, some of the art forms have become obsolete with time and changing technology.

Cheraw Dance

Mizoram’s Cheraw Dance also known as the bamboo dance is losing its popularity slowly.

Many art forms exist as they have been passed on from one generation to the other either through art lessons or through art collectables or through museum preserves.

Chhau is basically an art of making tribal masks from a mixture of paper, mud and clay.

It is basically a form of dance using such masks as a prop and wearing colourful and bright clothes.

When one mentions ‘Warli!’, a vision of a stick figure with geometric designs is lit up in the mind with a black background and white etching of figures and simple village landscapes.
