An exhibition of recent works by Japani Shyam. Japani carries forward the tradition of Gond Tribal Art that was practiced and put on the global map by her father, late Jangarh Singh Shyam.
Japani Shyam is the young and talented daughter of the
famous Gond artist, Jangarh Singh Shyam. Born in 1988, she has had many shows
and attended workshops throughout the country. She has imbibed the use of
colour and form from her father and continues to experiment with and express it
in her creations. Her
world is inhabited by animals and rituals, and she integrates nature through
forests which these animals dwell in. In 1999, aged eleven, she was
awarded the Kamala Devi Award in recognition of her talent.
