There's a plethora of art hidden in everyday lives of these pastoral communties. Rabari women bring mundane objects to life by their emboridery skills that they learn overtime as a hobby. They embroider covers for ordinary objects such as jerrycans and carry bags, beautify their multi-purpoe duvets and pillow covers. They also embroider their blouses and skirts as a way to give ordinary things a pop of vibrancy!
