Lamp kolam with dots

When I was young I was wonder struck to see the hand skills of my mother and grandmother to join the dots of white rice powder dry or wet paste on the floor of inside and outside entrance of the house and at prayer place in the house to create design patterns with sound reason and a purpose. This decorative hand art is done in temple premises too. These designs are believed to produce positive cosmic forces and vibrancy to the environment. This freehand drawing of kolam art is popular in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. However, in other parts of India this fine art is styled differently. Now I am 67 years old and I thought why not I share my thoughts on this wonderful freehand drawing of scientific art patterns with my blog readers to invoke further thoughts and research on this unique art of Tamil tradition. Also fascinating to explore how Kolam and Rangoli patterns have caught the attention of researchers worldwide. Traditionally kolams are believed to invoke auspiciousness, divinity and ward off evils. This ritual art of kolam is ubiquitous cutting across barriers of creed, caste, rural, urban, rich, poor, educated and illiterate in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. Kolams are drawn daily in the prayer room or place where the prayer lamp is kept. But one could notice in some of the Tamil speaking very orthodox and traditional Vaishnavites households in the temple city of Srirangam near Tiruchirapalli town in Tamil Nadu in India that the lines in their format of kolams are bent and not straight lines. I tried to know the reasons from the locals and I was not successful. There are specific kolams attributed to occasions and deities. It has been a practice as daily chores of life that this art is done only by women of the household from time immemorial.

This 5 dots kolam happens to be my one of my favourite kolams. A small and easy kolam ideal for apartment and space constraint areas. I draw this kolam at doorstep as an evening kolam. Place the dots as shown. Start the loop from the corner dots and form the strand as shown. Join the outer centre dots and form a square. Draw a strand connecting the outer dots tangling around the square. You may add border and extra elements or colours to enhance the kolam.
