Bohada masks
This is a traditional Bohada mask from Nashik, Maharashtra. The art form comes from the word Bohada, meaning “procession” in Marathi, it is a traditional tribal festival featuring vibrant parades where performers wear the handcrafted papier-mâché masks representing gods, demons, animals, and mythological figures. Rooted in the traditions of communities like the Warli, Katkari, and Mahadev Koli, Bohada is both a spiritual and cultural celebration.
This rare papier-mâché art form, preserved and practiced by just one family and five artisans, the Bohada remains a striking symbol of Maharashtra’s folk heritage and the power of living tradition. These masks honor vibrant folk traditions and celebrate Maharashtra’s rich storytelling culture.
