內容簡介

內容簡介 Patterns of India: A Journey Through Colors, Textiles, and the Vibrancy of Rajasthan 色彩之書：走進拉賈斯坦的織紋與日常 一場以「顏色」為線索的印度之旅—— 從皇家藍到萬壽菊橙，從紗麗織紋到市集香料，色彩不只是視覺，而是文化本身。 由 Christine Chitnis 歷時十餘年拍攝與書寫，收錄 200 多幅影像與文化隨筆，深入印度拉賈斯坦的生活肌理：建築、紡織、宗教儀式與日常場景，在光影與圖紋之間展開。 色彩在此不只是裝飾，而是一種語言—— 織進服飾、蔓延於市集、綻放於祭典，也藏在每一個細緻的圖樣之中。 翻開本書，像走進一幅持續流動的織布—— 每一頁，都是文化與美感交織的風景。It’s the trip of a lifetime—a textile-based tour of colorful Rajasthan, India featuring more than 200 lush photographs depicting everyday life in one of the most vibrant regions in the world.”Get lost in the beauty of the photographs in Patterns of India, a striking journey through the colorful Indian state of Rajasthan.”—BuzzFeedPatterns of India is a visual experience that offers intimate insights into the diverse and richly hued Western Indian culture. Color is the thread that binds the vast country together, defining every aspect of life from religion and politics to food and dress. Organized by the five dominant colors royal blue, sandstone, marigold, ivory, and rose, this book explores how deeply color and pattern exist in a symbiotic relationship and are woven into every part of the culture. For instance, the fuchsia found in the draping fabric of a sari is matched by the vibrant chains of roses offered at temple, and the burnt orange spices in the marketplaces are reflected in the henna tattoos given to brides and wedding guests. While every color is imbued with meaning, it is often within the details of patterns that the full story comes to light.Photographer and writer Christine Chitnis spent over a decade traveling through, getting to know, and falling in love with the intricate patterns of everyday Rajasthani life. With history and culture-based essays woven throughout the more than 200 stunning photographs of architecture, markets, cuisine, art, textiles, and everyday goings-on, Patterns of India captures the beauty and essence of this unique part of the world."
