Kashmir Youth
Aziz-ul Rehman: This Kashmiri youth is creating masterpieces by carving animal bones
A Kashmiri youth is earning attention on social media by making creative decorative masterpieces by carving animal bones.
22-year-old Aziz-ul Rehman from the Gulab Bagh area of Srinagar is the first youth from the Valley to master the difficult art.
Aziz, who is studying in the Department of Fisheries, was inspired by videos of such arts on social media and during COVID lockdown.
He regularly painted different types of images on the bones to turn them into works of art, reports ANI.
He told ANI that one should be careful in carving things from bones as they are very brittle and if you put pressure on them, they will break.
He says that acquiring tools and equipment for this art form is a one-time investment that you don’t need to update regularly.
He added the raw material for his art, namely bones, was available freely in Kashmir.
He said he usually collects bones from butcher shops that give them to him for free.
