The London Jungle Book by Gita Wolf, Bhajju Shyam, Sirish Rao

chyneyee's review

5.0

This beautiful book shows his Gond style of art which uses a lot of patterns and animals. He expresses his thoughts about London and the differences between the western and his own culture. We also get to understand more about Gond traditional beliefs through the arts especially each piece of art has its own description with it. What I loved the most is he uses the Gond style to bring the two different worlds together with symbols. Big Ben is the temple of time for London but a rooster is the symbol of time for Gond and he combines both in his art to tell the story.
