Published on: 

Exhibition by Gond community painter Shambhudayal Shyam is being organized at Madhya Pradesh State Tribal Museum.

The 30th Shalaka Chitra Exhibition will continue till October 30.

In his paintings are fish, crab and bird and elephant, peacock and deer, Bada Dev ka Banana and Ganesha based on many subjects. Around 24 paintings made by him have been displayed.

The effect of the rural environment and rural life is not seen in his paintings, yet he enjoys making shapes of animals and birds. Their created shapes contain many shapes, such as a lot happening at the same time.

The rhythmic motifs are combined with some vibrant shades. He uses very bright colours in his paintings, yet the rhythm of the shapes and the strong streaks of the lines makes his paintings attractive.

At Tribal Folk Arts and Language Development Academy he got an opportunity to understand other literary aspects of his community as well, due to which Shambhu became the goddess in his paintings. Drawing of deities became more popular, which has remained in continuity till date. Shambhu continued to receive academic support and guidance in the path shown by Jangarh Singh Shyam in his life.

In his art journey for about 25 years, Shambhu has exhibited his paintings in many art galleries of the country, as well as actively participated in many painting camps, art fairs. He has also been honored with Jangarh Singh Shyam Award.
