Adivasi Paintings

Tribal art works are always considered exclusive, as these are evolved in isolation. The paintings and other art forms, created by Tribals carries a distinct charm. These are extremely rudimentary wall paintings that make use of a very basic graphic vocabulary: a circle, a triangle, and a square. The paintings are monosyllabic. The circle and triangle come from their observation of nature, the circle representing the sun and the moon, while the triangle is derived from mountains and pointed trees. The central motive in each ritual painting is the square, known as the "chalk" or "Shaukat". The main theme of Tribal art is the denotation of a triangle where the larger one at the top is "man" and a triangle which is wider at the bottom is "woman".
