KASHMIRI ARTISANS & MODERN DAY CHALLENGES
FacebookTwitterWhatsappTelegram

Kashmir is known for its vibrant and diverse artistic heritage, which has been passed down through generations of skilled artisans. However, these artisans face numerous challenges in today’s globalised and modernized world. In this article, we will examine the struggle and success of traditional Kashmiri artisans, and explore the impact of globalisation and modernisation on their work.

Kashmiri artisans have long been known world over for their skill in producing a wide range of handicrafts, including shawls, carpets, papier-mache and embroidery. However, these traditional crafts are increasingly being threatened by competition from mass produced goods and modern technology. One of the main challenges facing Kashmiri artisans is the lack of infrastructure and support for their work.

Many artisans work in small, home based workshops without access to modern tools or resources. This makes it difficult for them to compete with large scale producers who have access to modern machinery and technology.   In addition to these challenges, artisans are also faced with changing consumer preferences. Modern consumers are increasingly drawn to large scale goods, which are cheaper and more readily available than traditional handicrafts.

This has made it difficult for traditional artisans to market their products and compete in the global marketplace. Despite these challenges, there has been some success in the traditional artisan sector. Many artisans have adapted to techniques incorporating modern materials and designs, while still maintaining the traditional elements of their craft. Others have found success by focusing on niche markets, such as high end luxury goods or ecofriendly products.   One of the key drivers of success for traditional artisans has been the support of local and international organisations. These organisations have provided training, infrastructure, and marketing support to artisans, helping them to improve their skills and expand their businesses. Additionally, these organisations have helped to raise awareness of the value of traditional crafts, both in Kashmir and around the world. In conclusion, Kashmiri artisans face numerous challenges in today’s globalised and modernised world. However, through a combination of adaptation, niche marketing, and support from local and international organisations, many artisans have been able to maintain and even expand their businesses. As consumers, we can support these artisans by seeking and purchasing traditional handicrafts, and by supporting organisations that work to promote and preserve traditional crafts in Kashmir and beyond.
