I am a student of textiles. Talking about fabrics is not only my passion but my life. Studying the Indian textiles since five years now have totally changed my perspective towards them. It wouldn't be justified if I don't mention the contribution of my teachers in making me so sensitive towards not otherwise so important clothes that we wear. People do like to get dressed but for most of them its just a basic necessity of humility and modesty. There are very few who actually can associate with what they are wearing and hence appreciate them. Sadly the only associations are the price tags and brands. I have got so habitual of appreciating the fabrics that while travelling to places I get engrossed into observing clothes of people around me. Sometimes my friends make fun of me for being so obssessive about fabrics. But this is my pure excitement to share my knowledge and to celebrate the joy of being able to associate with the fabric.
Recently I discovered my love to write so here I am starting my blog just to create my own reflections and ideas. My only intention of writing this blog is my passion for understanding fabric and love for beautiful Indian textiles.
With my masters getting over soon, my association and deep love with the subject is increasing. I love to read about art and history associated with it. It feels like that I have travelled to same era when the skills were at their best and ever handmade art was appreciated.
