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.

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.
