Balu Jivya Mashe: Continuing the Warli Legacy

Balu Jivya Mashe is a distinguished Warli artist and the son of the renowned Warli painter
Jivya Soma Mashe. Continuing his father’s legacy, Balu’s work is deeply rooted in the traditional Warli style, characterized by rhythmic, simplified forms that depict the complexities of the world around him. His art often portrays scenes of daily life, nature, and spiritual motifs, rendered in white pigment on mud or brown paper. Balu’s contributions have been showcased in various exhibitions, including a notable 2007 joint exhibition with his father at Gallery Chemould, Mumbai.
