Woman's wings in Gond by Venkat Shyam

This striking Gond painting titled Women’s Wing by the celebrated artist Venkat Shyam is a bold, surreal, and thought-provoking celebration of womanhood, resilience, and transformation. Set against a vivid azure blue background, the central figure — a powerful, winged woman — strides forward with unwavering determination, her outstretched arm pointing purposefully toward the horizon.

Painted with the fine, stippled textures typical of Gond art, her form embodies Venkat Shyam's signature "Lahrdaar" or "choppy waves." These black stripes not only imbue the piece with dynamic movement but also make her radiate strength and grace, beautifully merging earthly femininity with celestial symbolism.

Draped in a red garment, a woman balances a pot on her head, symbolizing sustenance and labor. The composition is rich with layered symbolism: a child clinging to her hand represents maternal care, while a scorpion on her thigh hints at the dangers women endure. An airplane in the background signifies modern aspirations, and a train with eyes beneath her feet reflects society's watchful gaze. Ultimately, her pale blue wings suggest a transcendence beyond earthly limitations.

With a globe partially visible at her hip, the painting underscores the universal nature of her experience and spirit. Integrally woven throughout the composition are bindus, or dots, representing Shakti, the essence of feminine power and the very origin of the universe.

Venkat Shyam’s Women’s Wing transcends mere visual allure, weaving together mythology, modernity, and social commentary into a deeply evocative ode to female agency, endurance, and the eternal, soaring spirit of womanhood.
