Tracing the History of Gond Kalam
The modern face of Gond art, known as Jangarh Kalam, traces its roots back to traditional wall murals. The characteristic style involves filling the painted figures with meticulous, repeated patterns—from fine parallel lines to elaborate dots. This detailing is more than decoration; it is a signature element that represents texture, movement, and the spiritual energy believed to inhabit the subjects. Purchasing this artwork supports the preservation of this remarkable Indian tribal art heritage and the livelihood of the artists who carry on this ancient tradition.
About This Artwork
This compelling piece captures a truly mythical figure: a Turtle with added Wings and possibly other merged elements, interacting dynamically with a school of Fish in a stylized water body. In many cultures, the turtle is a symbol of longevity and stability, while the addition of wings suggests a transcendence between earth, water, and sky—a common theme in tribal folklore. The figure is detailed using a rich, earthy palette and intricate line patterns that lend a striking texture and powerful sense of movement. Measuring 11 inches by 15 inches, this painting is an exceptional example of genuine Indian folk art and mythology rendered on paper.
