    Yashpal Bharanda

    Yashpal Bharanda, a prominent Bhil artist from Udaipur, Rajasthan, is renowned for his innovative approach to traditional Bhil art. Immersed in the rich cultural heritage of the Bhil community, Bharanda’s work reflects a deep connection to nature and spirituality. The Bhils, an agricultural community spread across western and central India, have a long history of expressing their cultural and philosophical beliefs through art. Inspired by this legacy, Bharanda incorporates traditional motifs such as suns, moons, animals, and mythological figures into his paintings. His use of vibrant colours and symbolic patterns captures the essence of Bhil life, while his modern techniques, including the use of acrylic paints and canvases, bring a contemporary twist to these age-old traditions.

    Bharanda’s artistic journey has been significantly influenced by his participation in the Craft and Community Development Foundation's (CCDF) Gondwana Art Project. This initiative provides residencies and mentorships, helping artists like Bharanda explore new design concepts and methods. Through his art, Bharanda not only preserves the cultural heritage of the Bhil community but also introduces it to a wider audience, ensuring that these vibrant traditions continue to thrive in the contemporary art world.
