The Foliage – Traditional Gond art

Description

Gond art is an artistic genius of India’s largest Adivasi tribe, who used their art to preserve their history. The Gond community held a strong belief that viewing a positive image begets positivity. To capture that essence in their paintings, they festooned the outlines of their dwellings with traditional motifs and tattoos. Their main focus through their art was to portray humans as protagonists in the general drama of life, sharing a special connection with their natural habitat. The reason why Gond paintings are so soulful and captivating is because of how wonderfully they depict nature and the role it plays in the lives of humans.

In this artistic table, linework has been attempted with the utmost care, putting in maximum effort for superlative effortlessness. The lines add movement to stillness and inspire spontaneity in all areas of life. The dots and dashes add to the essence of movement that has been dealt with through hand-painting on a carved piece of grained wood and resin table. The log and the art have been preserved in resin, which has later been buffed and for shine and further layered with a coat of oil for protection against scratches and additional damages.

IMPORTANT – This table is one of its kind and cannot be recreated. We here at Aadhya make hand-painted tables and share an authenticity certificate with our products to ensure originality.
