Rooted Birdsong by Sajhwa Devi

Sold by

Sajhwa Devi

Description

In 'Rooted Birdsong', Sajhwa Devi creates a hybrid form which seems part bird, part plant. The creature rises from curling vines, its limbs ending in leaves and its body dotted with patterns of fertility and life. Painted with earthy reds and deep blues, the piece speaks of connection: between land, air, and living things.

Why This Artwork Stands Out:

• A fine example of Sohrai art’s symbolic link between animals and vegetation.
• Uses organic pigments to depict the unity of life and landscape.
• Ideal for art lovers exploring folk symbolism and earthy abstraction.
• Represents tribal women’s storytelling through form and rhythm.

A piece that feels alive, as though still growing from the soil that inspired it.

What is the difference between Sohrai and Kohvar paintings?
Sohrai painting is created during the harvest festival, which celebrates the end of the rainy season. Khovar painting is a wedding chamber decoration that marks the marriage season, like Spirit of the Forest symbolises the interconnected ecosystem much like a family. Sohrai uses multiple colors like red, black, and white to symbolize fertility, ancestors, and food, while Khovar is typically monochrome, using a white and black sgraffito technique to symbolize the womb and fertility for a nuptial chamber.
Are the artworks on Rooftop signed by the artist?
Yes! Khovar artworks like Spirit of the Forest are all original artworks signed by the artists.
Does this painting have a meaning that the painter wants to convey?
Maybe, maybe not. Most artists, especially when it comes to Khovar paintings like Spirit of the Forest, paint with some meaning in mind, but when they share the artwork with the world, they let the viewers decide their own meanings and interpretations. So that everyone may have their own unique experience of the art.
