Kuni Hikaka's House - Bilingual (2021)
Story: Pritu Vatsa | Illustrations: Anjali Joy
This book is an attempt to portray the vernacular architecture of the Kuvi villages, and showcase how arts and culture are embedded in them. This bilingual version of Kuni Hikaka’s House is in English and Kuvi. Kuvi is the first language of the Kuvi people, known as Kondhs by outsiders. The script is Odia, since Kuvi doesn't have a script of its own.
Youth Vikalp Sangam (2020)
Documentation | Edited by Ashik Krishnan
As the world hurtles towards greater ecological devastation, inequalities, and social conflicts, the biggest question facing us is: are there alternative ways of meeting human needs and aspirations, without trashing the earth and without leaving half of humanity behind? The Youth Vikalp Sangam was one where around 40 individuals working in the domain of Environment and Ecological Justice came together and dialogued on the alternative futures they wished to see.
Kuni Hikaka's House (2020)
Story: Pritu Vatsa | Illustrations: Anjali Joy
Small, yet big things make up the house of a Kondh child. House is not just a room or two, but a place where culture and worldview grows. A Kondh house accommodates all. Coop for chicken, shed for cows, space for storing seeds, and more. Verandahs are connected and common. Rooms are for sleeping. The book depicts some of these elements from the Kondh housing.
