Meet the Artist

Jitendra Prajapati

Jitendra is a fourth-generation potter from the Kumhar community, known for their deep-rooted connection to clay work. He learnt the craft from his grandfather and continues the family tradition in Pushkar. Since local clay isn’t suitable, he sources it from Bagru to keep the craft alive. While his ancestors used a traditional chak (manual wheel), Jitendra built his own electric potter’s wheel and was the first in his city to do so. Blending innovation with heritage, he is keeping this age-old craft relevant and thriving.
