Book Description

Introduction
MADHUKAR VADU IS A TRIBAL ARTIST AND A RESEARCHER.

This book elucidates the culture and traditions of the Warlis through in depth research on symbolism in Warli Paintings.

His research gives us an insight into age old practices and traditions, many of which have changed or evolved with time. Warli folk tales passed onto him by village elders became his life capital.

His detailed research not only helps compare the present with the past but also aids in predicting the future of the tribal communities. Drawing on his Grandmother's store of tribal memory, Madhukar has documented many rare facts about the Mysteries of the Warli Tribe.

After all, the tribal world is but a complex and intricate web of myths, legends and cultural beliefs. They were the hunters and gatherers known for their mythic vision of Mother Earth. Through Madhukar's research we learn about their stories regarding the formation of Mother Earth and age old traditions.

These stories have journeyed down the oral tradition through songs and folk tales.
