Gond Painting Workshop at Kala Ghoda
7th February, 2018
The mess, the joy, and the challenges of
painting using different patterns, is a form of Gond art painting. Aditya Birla World Academy Students conducted
a workshop on Gond Art for the Gilderlane students. The workshop started with
educating our students about the tribal art form. Our students had to
decide if and how they wanted to incorporate their painting using the
foundational patterns. Along with lot of
excitement and enthusiasm students developed their skills of observation
through this workshop.
The Gond tribal community is one
of the central India’s largest native communities and their art is an
expression of their everyday quest for life.
The Gond art engagement with the belief that “viewing a good image
causes good luck”. Gond art transposed onto paper and canvass with talented
artists showcasing their skills. Each student experienced the
entire process of Gond Art painting, beginning with drawing, coloring and
ending it by the double lined
outlines, squiggles, dots and styled it their way!
