Gond Art Painting | Mother's Love for Chicks | Manoj Kumar Tekam (MKT 112/19-20)

Manoj Kumar Tekam a Gond artist’s raw and rooted appeal is what attracts the viewers in this artwork. Difficult to ignore the simplicity and vivid energy of his paintings. The art of Gond paintings is all about indigenous stories depicted with the finesse of fine strokes and rhyme. The stories representing everyday life in a village come alive in the paintings by the artist. The mother is accompanied by her chicks as she shows them how to navigate and at the same time protect them. The grey shadow of the roots shows the strength of the Gond community’s long history.
