How To Reach Tandet Art Village

Ukhrul, Manipur, India
Visionary Community Arts and Cultural Revival: Tandet Art Village is not a traditional village but a progressive cultural and artistic hub founded by local artist Sorei Keishing as a movement to revive and promote Tangkhul art, culture, and entrepreneurship. It is centrally located near the town of Ukhrul and often takes the form of a collective space, including the famous Tandet Art Cafe, which acts as a gallery and community meeting point. This village concept is central to "Project – Paint Ukhrul," an initiative where local artists paint murals, geometrical patterns (inspired by the Madhubani art style, yet distinctly Tangkhul), and traditional motifs across the streets and buildings of the town, transforming the urban landscape into an open-air gallery. The art is characterized by bold colors, indigenous narratives, and a fusion of modern and traditional aesthetics, often incorporating elements from the rich Naga folklore and textile patterns. The space is a hub for workshops, seminars, and exhibitions, serving as a platform for young and established artists to explore careers in 2D animation, painting, and handicrafts. It actively seeks to address unemployment and community upliftment through creative economy. It represents the modernization and artistic vitality of the district, making it a critical landmark for contemporary Manipur culture.The Art of Modern Tangkhul Identity: The movement champions using art as a vehicle for social commentary and community pride. :
