FRAMES OF NATURE
Nature inspires us everyday with innumerable frames; each more picturesque than the other. This collection of sarees made for Suta, celebrates just that. From ascending mounrains to the glimmering lotus pond, these beautiful frames are etched on to glistening chanderi silk using techniques of free hand batik.

KANTHA KATHA
Kantha is an age old technique of hand embroidery mainly used in making quilts. It was traditionally done using old sarees and drapes. This project for Suta was a contemporary take on the same on handwoven tussar in combination with applique.

SPIRIT ANIMAL
Animals are our fellow beings. Through years, people have seen and treated the concept of ‘spirit animals’ in different ways. A few as a spiritual guide, a few as an inspiration and a figure to look up to and seek aid from and a few as a reflection of their own traits and inner spirit. This collection is a celebration of the same using origami inspired animal motifs illustrated in the beautiful weave of hand jamdani on mul cotton.
