Visitors collaborate with elephants on large-scale canvases.
Kerala has opened Elephant Painting Workshops, where elephants contribute to collaborative artworks under supervision. According to The Hindu, visitors participate alongside elephants, combining creativity, education, and animal interaction.
Guests report satisfaction, unique experiences, and impressive final pieces. Trainers ensure safety, ethical practices, and structured collaboration. Critics express concern over authenticity and interpretation, but proponents highlight enrichment, tourism engagement, and memorable cultural experiences.
Future plans include gallery exhibitions, thematic workshops, and eco-conscious art events emphasizing conservation awareness.
