Playful Forest Wall Art

Playful Forest — 2 museum-grade prints that set the mood. Warli Adivasi communities of Jawhar and the North Sahyadri live adjacent to forest where langurs and macaques are daily neighbours — not exotic backdrop but shared canopy. Classical Warli forest-life scenes include monkeys, deer, and birds as community-with-nature vocabulary, distinct from hunting chase scatter and from marriage chauk geometry. Sohrai is a harvest-season wall art of Hazaribagh district, Jharkhand, painted by women of tribal and Kurmi communities to welcome cattle home after the rice harvest, around Diwali. The wild elephants of the plateau forests enter these walls alongside the domestic herd, a reminder that Sohrai celebrates the whole living forest, not only the farmyard.
