Vijay Uikey dropped out of school early & took to Gond because he had a natural flair for it. He comes from a family of traditional Gond artists who had turned to various professions to sustain themselves.
The Asian Heritage Foundation took interest in his work & he trained with Rajeev Sethi where his style evolved & stories got more narrative.
Gond art is unique to it's namesake Adivasi community in Madhya Pradesh. The artist communities are also spread across Andhra, Orissa & Maharashtra. The art is inspired by the communities reverence of nature, it's trees, animals, water bodies, mountains & more. The art & it's stories are thus sacred.
Originally the Gond community painted their homes. Making paintings and decorating functional items commercially came much later, in the 20th century.
