Artist Statement: "My journey as an artist has been a quest to impart a visual language to the varied influences and interactions that have left a mark on my mind. Having worked closely with traditional textile craftspeople across India, the heart has always appreciated the labor of love. The visual language of this art reflects many world cultures. The fabrics have echoes of many age-old resist dye techniques, including shibori from Japan, bandhej from India, and adire' from Nigeria. The patterns are planned and the colors require precise chemistry. Yet, each step adds complexity making the end result is often unpredictable."
