Description
The central motif in this ritual Warli painting is the rectangle with a triangle top similar to a hut, known as the ?chauk?. The triangle portion has a Kalash (pot of prosperity). Inside a Devchauk, Palaghat, the Mother Goddess symbolizing fertility is found. This process of drawing a rectangle with God is called ?Chauk Lihine?. In the beginning, they just draw a simple line for the name of God which is known as ?Devregh? (line for God). The Chauk is surrounded by other Warli elements, especially the horses which is a scene in the tribal villages when there is a wedding.
