ARTIST STATEMENT
Under colonial rule, artisans were devalued as British industrialization replaced traditional textile methods with factory-driven systems, marginalizing their craft. This project represents a return to heritage and identity, inspired by my journey to Hyderabad's villages, where artisans create textiles in their homes using generational techniques. Each piece—block-printed or batik—preserves history, culture, and a sustainable connection to nature. In a world of mass production, these textiles quietly champion meaningful artistry, inviting us to reflect on their impact as they meet modern landscapes like Los Angeles, enriching art, fashion, and environmental consciousness.
