Origin Myth | London Jungle Book | Night Life of Trees (video clip)

Bhajju Shyam’s London Jungle Book, published by Tara Publishing has made him a household name in many countries. His book reflects his reactions responses to the cultural experience of London, which he interprets in the Gondi style. Bhajju Shyam collaborated with Durga Bai and Ram Singh Urveti on Tara Publishing’s The Night Life of Trees which won the Bolognaragazzi Award.

Bhajju Shyam’s motifs are drawn from nature, from the Gond pantheon, folk tales, and the community’s origin myths. He has used Krishna-Radha motif, showing cows drawn to the sound of the god’s flute. Bhajju Shyam remembers that his mentor, Jangarh Singh Shyam, was also a flute player. Bhajju Shyam’s wife Deepa Shyam has also started painting recently. Her main motif is the crow, who in the Gondi creation myth was sent by Badadev to fetch the clay with which he shaped the earth.

Patachitra : Patachitra Patachitra Patachitra : Besides mural paintings, there are miniature paintings which are called patachitras. Pattas are now used as wall hangings. The subject matter of Patta paintings is limited to religious themes. The stories of Rama and Krishna are usually depicted on the Pattas. Rasa Lila, Vastra Haran, Kaliya Dalan are some of the recurring themes of Patta art. Pata Chitra of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra and Subhadra, the Navagrahas and the deities are also famous. In some parts of Orissa, during marriage ceremonies, Patta chitras of Durga and Mahadev are used. The traditional art of Patachitra was practised by the Mahapatra or the Maharana (Professional Painters) caste. Their work flourished with the patronage of the temples, for which they created religious paintings -particularly of Lord Jagannath. Even today, they are mostly created on Ghumurara dance and Sambalpuri dance. The Chitrakaras also traditionally have the important tasks of repainting the Jagannath Temple, deities and chariots every year. Ganjapa, circular playing cards, created by the chitrakaras, are a collector's item. Vividly coloured, they depict a fine sense of traditional aesthetics. The pattachitra artists have revived a lost art and tourists can see this fascinating and detailed form of painting and etching being recreated at the deft hands of craftsmen at the Raghurajpur artist's village, near Puri.
