'Vrata' Vessel
NOTE FROM THE ARTIST
"A narrative embedded in traditional female ‘Vrata’ rituals of Bengal that conjoins historical and traditional textile crafts developed into a body of work. By investigating and reimagining the fluid and graceful movements and patterns in these craft-forms, through a process-driven creative practice has allowed for a conceptually challenging and engaging structure, exploring light, shadow and movement.
Subjects of culture, memory and time are connected through visual representation and aesthetic considerations made through the manipulation of material, pattern and colour. The questioning of stereotypical gendering of these traditional crafts as ‘domesticated’ is made whilst making forms that symbolise fragility, strength and beauty."
