About Sumitra Dashrath Ahake

I am a tribal artist from the foothills of the Melghat Tiger Reserve in Maharashtra and belong to the Gond community. Inspired by Gond and Warli traditions, my art reflects the deep connection between indigenous communities, forests, wildlife, and rural life. Drawing from Melghat’s landscapes, biodiversity, and folklore, I explore coexistence and traditional knowledge. Through my paintings, I seek to preserve cultural identity and share tribal stories with wider audiences.
