    Solution

    Recently, an exhibition by the Inherited Arts Forum, traces the artistic journey of the celebrated Mashe family and their effort in reviving the Warli painting.  It is a style of tribal art created by the tribal people from the North Sahyadri Range in Maharashtra.  This art form can be traced back to 10th century AD but was first discovered and appreciated for its distinctive style only in the early 1970s.  It was traditionally practised by women of the Warli tribe called Suvasinis, who decorated the Lagn Chowk or the wedding square.
