Traditional Color Sensibilities & role of Natural ENT

The study is categorized by two major keywords- Color and Light. The understanding of these was undertaken through regional research of Barmer city, located on the western side of Rajasthan, comprising mainly of the Thar desert. Colors, as manifested to us, are in the totality of a holistic picture comprising of the natural environment, which is further divided into landscapes, the skyscapes, flora, fauna, and the plantations, and the man environment, which is further divided into built forms, textiles, attires, people, objects and crafts. This is seen as different layers juxtaposing on to each other to perceive the complete picture. The colors in the context of this study are not seen in absoluteness but are seen as a whole of living perception by studying one’s way of life contextualized within a particular region. Therefore, it becomes imperative to study the contextualized environment to connect through the dots to realize the interdependence of each topic discussed below and its direct and indirect connections with the natural environment.
