Ka ktien "bukhir" ka mut aïu?
What is the meaning of the Khasi word "bukhir"?
Ka ktien "bukhir" ka thew ïa u briew uba ieit sbai palat. Shuh shuh lah ban batai ba bukhir ka mut ba khapnap poh, ba byrtia, ba ieit tang ïalade, ba sniew jinglong.
The Khasi word "bukhir" refers to a person who loves money. It can be further explained to mean someone who is frugal, miserly and ungenerous. It also refers to someone who is selfish and who has a bad temperament.

Title – "Untitled"
Medium – Woodcut
Editions – 5
Year – 2023
Size – 19'5'' x 24'
Artist – Wanhi-i Challam
He says: "This is a woodcut of a waterfall near by my home town – 'PHE PHE falls'. I chose to be very spontaneous with this one. Initially, it was intended to be just a simple, realistic landscape woodcut. However, as I worked on it, I chose to have some freedom in the techniques of cutting the wood and to allow the composition to evolve organically as I worked on it. I allowed the wood to guide me and fused the original form of the waterfall with my personal interpretation. I find it very meditative to work this way, not strictly following the realistic image of the waterfall, but instead capturing the emotions and feeling the rhythm of the waterfall with all its force, aggressiveness, daring, serenity, and stillness, while still conveying a sense of calmness and beauty."

Kane ka dei ka matti jingdro jong i Bah @coops_kharlukhi jong ka khlieh jong ka kshaid Nohkalikai. Khublei Shibun Bah ba phi la phah ïa kane ka dur kaba shoh jingmut shisha! 😄🙏
This painting is of the head of the Nohkalikai waterfall, named after Ka Likai who as is told in the folktale, jumped from the waterfall after tragedy struck her life.
He says: "Most people see the waterfall from the front. They see how beautiful it is. However when looking at the mouth of the waterfall, one does not see beauty but one feels fear. The stones and boulders on the sides too, are symbolic of the obstacles and tragedy which mark Likai's life. There is fear at the mouth of the waterfall but Likai overcame her fear and sorrow when she jumped."
What an interesting perspective Bah Coops!
