GOND AND BHIL ART

The Gonds and Bhils are two major tribal communities of Central India, The Bhil tribe is largely found in the western parts of state of Madhya Pradesh, and in Gujarat.The Gond tribe inhabits parts of Madhya Pradesh ,Chattisgarh ,Andra Pradesh and parts of Maharashtra. These regions are rich in cultural heritage and have distinct arts and crafts that need to be showcased... I have been working with the various tribes from Madhya Pradesh to promote them nationally and internationally.
