The Painting

Inspired by the traditional Godna tattooing practices of Chhattisgarh, this artwork transforms the human form into a striking composition of geometric patterns and symbolic motifs. The minimalist palette highlights the rhythm and precision of handcrafted line work while honouring a centuries-old artistic tradition.

The Artform

Godna Art is a traditional folk art form inspired by the ancient tattooing practices of the tribal communities of Chhattisgarh. Characterized by intricate geometric patterns, floral motifs, and symbolic designs, the art reflects themes of identity, protection, and cultural heritage. Once practiced as permanent body art, Godna motifs are now beautifully adapted onto paper, canvas, and textiles, preserving a centuries-old tradition through contemporary artistic expression.

The Artist

Manoj Kumar Tekam (born 2 February 1986) is a contemporary Indian artist from the Gond tribal community in Madhya Pradesh, known for his detailed work in the traditional Gond painting style. He learned the art under the guidance of the renowned artist Bhajju Shyam and draws inspiration from the forests, wildlife, and everyday life of his region, using vibrant colours and intricate patterns typical of Gond art. After working with Bhajju Shyam for several years, Manoj prefers the tranquillity of his village, visiting cities primarily to source materials for his work. ManojÂ’s paintings often feature wildlife and nature motifs that reflect the culture and environment of Gondwana, and he has exhibited and sold works through galleries and auctions internationally. His commitment to preserving and evolving Gond art continues to earn him recognition among collectors and lovers of tribal art.
