"Hey Mane" (Cave House Life) – Kurumba Tribal Art of Nilgiris

“Hey Mane”—meaning Cave House—captures the essence of the Kurumba tribes of the Nilgiris, one of the earliest inhabitants of the Western Ghats. Known for their deep connection to nature, the Kurumba people traditionally lived in caves, relying on hunting, gathering, and forest produce for survival.

This artwork, painted with natural colors from plants, roots, and leaves, beautifully portrays their daily life—family moments near a cave home and vibrant community celebrations under ancient trees. It reflects their rich heritage, respect for nature, and enduring traditions of music, dance, and art.
