The Forest Child

After five decades of carving the earth's stone and listening to its communities, Vijali turns to the youngest listeners. The Forest Child carries the same current that turns the World Wheel — the kinship of all life — into a story for children, with her own sepia illustrations.

The World Wheel · 1986 — 1993

Twelve sites, westward
around the Earth.

Sculptures carved into living rock, ceremonies made with the people of each place — and a circle that closed, and kept turning.

Art Gallery

Stone, paint, and five decades of making.

The Baul Musicians

“Remembering the village in West Bengal where the Baul musicians first drew the wheel eastward — and what the earth asks of us now.”

“The motivation for the World Wheel came from an experience in the mid 70's when my perception of ourselves and the world shifted, and the Unity of life stood revealed.”
