TarkataZ : A Visual Archive of Bengal’s Folk Traditions & Festivals

Since 2016, TarkataZ has been exploring rural Bengal, walking by soil, and listening to the timeless voices of its folk musicians. From the wisdom of elder Baul masters to the fresh energy of young singers, we have been documenting and preserving the living heartbeat of Bengal’s folk culture. Our journey is more than an archive—it is a bridge between generations, and now, between cultures.

A Global Invitation to Folk Music Lovers

Folk music has no borders. It carries the same pulse whether sung in Bengal, Africa, or Europe. Through TarkataZ, we invite folk music lovers around the world to discover the Baul tradition—not just as an art form, but as a way of life rooted in love, freedom, and spirituality. Our visual archive has become a global meeting point for those who believe in the power of music to connect hearts.

Experiential Tourism with TarkataZ

Every year during the Joydev Kenduli Baul Mela, we open the doors of Golok Ecospace to travelers, seekers, and global folk enthusiasts. Here, experiential tourism comes alive—where visitors don’t just watch performances, but share evenings with Baul musicians, join in riverside gatherings, and feel the mystic rhythm of Bengal. It is an immersive way to live the Baul philosophy, not just witness it.
