The wall tapestry is inspired from "Mithun or Gayal", a traditional symbol of Naga culture. It is a handwoven product weaved on a traditional loin loom. Mithun is considered as a domesticated bovine and is the state animal of Nagaland. It was the animal of choice of sacrifice, and a person who had offered a mithun in a feast of merit, a cultural practice of significance amongst the Nagas, which gave social status to the person to have the privilege of wearing a shawl with a mithun's head motif woven on it.
