Tara was born in Almora, India. Tara graduated in Animation from West Surrey College of Art and Design. She has been based in in Delhi for over twelve years. Having animated a folk tale from Chhattisgarh called "How the Elephant Lost His Wings" for a collection of animated tribal folktales called "The Tallest Story Competition" for a Scottish based animation company,West Highland Animation, Tara went on to establish the UK based charity the Adivasi Arts Trust (www.adivasiartstrust.org) in 2007. Tara is now developing a new collection of Indian animated tribal folktales focusing on the Northeast Region called "Tales of the Tribes". This is also being developed through a doctoral research project with Bournemouth University as a model for preserving indigenous cultural heritage through the audio visual medium.
Intriguingly appreciative as it may be, but replacement is a pertinent question, re-extraction of materials a pressure per se not only on forests but also multiplying energy & time. In crux may lead to depletion of resources.
The problems of the elderly, so beautifully handled by the Wancho. An enlarged prostate causes an endless need to urinate. And a toothless jaw means you can't chew tough meat and can only eat tongue and liver. They are so understanding, having a private space from their large extended families - away from the confusion chatter and bustle of the teenagers. I love it. We have so much to learn from these gentle people.

Thanks for bringing out this video of Kom tribe history. Kom tribe has a rich culture there are so many things more to discover. And there are so many folk tales but we do not have our own alphabets so there were no written records.
