The Nature's Play: Monkeys and Birds in Bhil by Kamlesh Parmar

This exquisite Bhil painting by Kamlesh Parmar captures a vibrant ecosystem in perfect harmony, centered around a majestic tree brimming with life. The tree, rooted deeply in a dark, fertile mound, rises upward with sweeping branches that arch symmetrically to cradle the natural world within it. Each branch is adorned with clusters of golden-yellow berries with orange centers, a visual feast for the five vividly patterned birds that find sanctuary among them. These birds, painted in a medley of striking hues — from earthy ochres to electric blues — perch gracefully on the boughs, pecking at the fruit or gazing into the distance with wide, soulful eyes. The dotted detailing on their bodies and wings adds a rhythmic texture, a hallmark of the Bhil tradition, symbolizing ancestral links and stories carried through generations. Amid this serene arboreal haven, two playful green monkeys emerge with expressive eyes and coiled tails, their limbs wrapped around the tree's trunk and branches as they interact with their surroundings in childlike delight. Their bodies are composed of concentric patterns and square motifs, echoing the geometric stylization typical of Bhil art. Below, the roots of the tree stretch visibly across the base in glowing green dots, anchoring the composition in a sense of grounding and life-giving energy. Parmar’s expert use of bold, dotted lines and contrasting colors brings a pulsating energy to the painting, narrating a tale of coexistence, abundance, and reverence for nature in a single, dynamic tableau that is both culturally rich and visually mesmerizing.
