Review
"A warm, rich and respectful book." --Time Out Delhi, March 2009
"Instead of merely presenting photographs, Nuturing Walls offers the work itself, with the thick brown paper acting as the clay walls of the Meena homes."
--Juxtapoz Magazine, September 2009

Product Description
A collection of living art from Meena tribal homes in Rajasthan, north India, Nurturing Walls focuses on a favourite theme of the artists: animals and their young. Such motifs are inseparable from everyday life, as the Meena women teach their daughters to paint and together decorate the clay and mud walls of their homes. The teeming world of baby animals and their mothers has been carefully recreated here as a series of silkscreen prints of the original artwork and a photo essay on the artists and their community.

Walls of art
15 Mar 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a most surprising book. The illustrations come printed on hand made paper and detail the wall art of the women of the Meena tribe in Rajasthan, India. I purchased this book as a source of primitive pattern inspiration for developing my own designs and found the information contained in the text an added bonus and most informative. The fact that this is a hand made book only adds to it's charm.
