Lush tribal interpretations of The Little Mermaid, by Gond Artist Bhajju Shyam. I love the updated retelling of this fairytale classic. From their website, "The Flight of the Mermaid is a feminist parable on the warring claims of love and choice." Buy the book here.
Also please buy Bhajju Shyam's "The London Jungle book" by Tara. A wonderful perspective on the city through the eyes of an amazing artist.
ReplyDeleteSee London as you have never seen it before!!
Hey there,
ReplyDeleteYes I know, I have quite a few of their books. I need to buy this one though.Gond is such a wonderful artistic tradition.I've been looking all over for Gond plushies! No luck yet..

Amazing, and also very different from the usual Gond paintings that I've seen in the past. Wish I could own one of these :)
ReplyDeleteBhajju Shyam is a brilliant artist. I'd love to see more of his work. He has a brilliant sense of design & colour.
