Description
From a fish waiting to be born, to the beginning of art and the necessity of death. lore from the Gond tribal community in central India abounds with stories of origins, transformations and ends. Celebrated Gond artist Bhajju Shyam now gathers together these tales for the first time. By linking together these tales for the everyday, he expresses the essence of each myth in ten sequential images. This extraodinary visual narrative of cyclical time takes us from the germinal moment to the turnaround point. where death once again transits into renewal. Gita Wolf's English text recreates the terse wisdom of Shyam's Hindi expressioins with great nuance. This handmade, limited edition book has been silkscreened on handmade paper in our print workshop based in Chennai, India, run according to fair trade practices.
