Description

The Curl Series is a tribute to the weaving traditions of Native American tribes, particularly the Algonquin people, who have been renowned for their intricate basketry for generations. Drawing inspiration from their remarkable craftsmanship, this collection uses fine woven bamboo splits delicately plaited with curls to create a distinctive, artistic expression. The design emphasizes the natural beauty of bamboo, harvested in the optimal season and split using traditional tools.

A nod to sustainability, the “Curl” series aims to showcase the versatile beauty of bamboo, an abundant material with significant cultural and artistic relevance. The collection, one of the most complex of its kind, focuses on achieving uniform curls, highlighting the skill and precision involved. As bamboo art continues to grow in demand, especially in India, this work brings attention to the importance of sustainable craftsmanship and ecological awareness in modern art.

It is a collection of fine woven bamboo splits plaited with curls to embellish the artworks. Products are woven with naturally dyed bamboo and has wooden frames made using traditional joiners
