Inspired by scientic drawings

I made this in 2012 ...wanted to do a screen print of it using natural dyes. But it worked out as a gift for my friend Bini. But I do intend to use this in my work someday.
It is made on Brown paper..the kind you use for thinner paper bags, OHP markers, Vellum, Dry pastels, Wax colours, and a coat of coffee and tea over the brown paper.
The vellum is used to create textures and a 3d look. they have been cut then drawn and coloured on separately, then pasted in layers.
Was super fun to make!!!

Fishing net stretched out and stitched over the frame
Creating elements and colours in fabrics...attaching them onto the fishing net- loads of people... Ranjita, Munni, Chhaya, Janisa, Ronjit and Gunpowder kitchen staff
Tied on to trees using bamboos and wire.
Net tensile structure made and elements attached.

The energy and the love was immense!!!! So fun!!!!

Lamp Explorations

General timepass lamp explorations....I think I will upload a better picture of the fish lamp..the picture does not do justice to the 3d texturing on it.

3D Tree that grows above the door

This tree was made in collaboration with a craftsperson called Sushant for People Tree store in Hauz Khas Village. I dont have very good pics of this...but you get the idea....
Wire branches and fabric and felt mouldable leaves..
