Masks Of Bengal Calendar 2025

With vivid colours and intricate designs, Bengal's masks are deeply rooted in mythology, folklore, and tribal traditions. Used in dances like Purulia’s Chhau and Dinajpur’s Gomira, these masks bring to life tales of gods, demons, and cosmic battles, blending storytelling with artistry.

Each region offers a unique style: the dynamic Chhau masks dramatize epics, Gomira masks embody divine blessings in fertility rituals, and Darjeeling’s Bagpa masks reflect Himalayan spiritualism. Bankura’s Rabankata masks preserve folk narratives with bold depictions of mythological characters.

Inspired by nature and mythology, these masks are crafted from clay, wood, and papier-mâché, symbolizing the cultural richness of Bengal’s diverse communities. Bongmade’s 2025 calendar reimagines this heritage, blending tradition with contemporary creativity.
