Beaten brass vessels especially Ghaagars and Handas are a very famous part of Barshi, a town in Maharashtra which also is my hometown. These vessels have been a part of childhood and growing up years. We use these to store water till date. This project gave me an opportunity to look into the making of these Ghaagars. I was lucky enough to be hosted by a wonderful family by the name of Gore who have been providing these vessels to my family shop for more than five decades now. I learnt about the entire process of making the Ghaagar. And also about a life very different than mine.Visual ethnography was a completely new field for me. With the excitement of a new subject and an age old tradition to explore I embarked on this journey of understanding the ‘Thokyachi Ghaagar’.
