She said the choice of hosting the exhibition in Kolkata was carefully thought out.

“This is the city of some of India’s greatest painters and it has a big community of art buffs and enthusiasts,” Vanlalsangi said.

“We have already got many queries from local media and art buffs.”

Kolkatans know Mizoram as the land of brave guerrillas and great footballers like Malsamtluanga (Mama for Kolkatans) and Lalsimpuia.

 

“So when I came to know about Mizo painters, I made it a point to check it. I am impressed,” said sports journalist Pratyusha Mukherjee.

“These people have a tendency to excel,” said Mukherjee.

For painter Zonunchami , painting is “therapy.’  “I paint for joy, not for money,” she told Northeast Now , saying she has been painting since 2010.
