Intersections

From loom to gallery, this collection brings the earthy tactility of cotton-by-linen weaves into dialogue with the language of Banarasi craftsmanship. Stripes, checks, and floral accents emerge with a softened edge: the natural diffusion of linen’s texture tempering the precision of the master weaver’s hand. Tension is finely calibrated to the fibre’s inelastic nature, reed settings adapted to maintain clean patterning, and zari with meenakari is worked in the slow, exacting kadhua technique. Each saree is a study in intersections: of fibre and form, restraint and ornament, personality and pattern.

Each saree in this collection is named after a pioneering figure in Indian art, whose work embodies a unique interplay of form, texture, and narrative, qualities mirrored in the weave itself.
