A dot. A line. And a whole language in between.

For Bindu & Rekha, Hastha x Akhil, artist Sai Akhil Anand plays with the simplest elements of drawing, using repetition and rhythm to turn them into bold, playful patterns.

Hand block printing adds another layer: each impression carries the subtle variations of the hand that made it.

We've added two new variants to the collection. Swipe through to check them out!

There is no greater encouragement for a young artist than being truly seen.

It was a pleasure to have Mrs. Aruna Anand walk through our exhibition, taking time to observe each artwork and appreciate the children's creativity. Her thoughtful words and genuine encouragement made the day even more special for our young artists.

Thank you, ma'am, for celebrating not just the paintings, but the hearts behind them. ❤️🎨

Every therapist learns techniques.
But the therapists who create lasting change think differently.

What guides their decisions in the middle of a session? Why do they choose one activity over another? How do they see potential where others see limitations?

Join us at Beyond Techniques and step inside the clinical reasoning of expert therapists working with children with Cerebral Palsy.

If you’re ready to move beyond what to do and understand why expert clinicians make the choices they do, this webinar is for you.

Aruna and I are thrilled to be part of @indiareadsaloud, a wonderful nationwide initiative by @turningpagesindia that celebrates the joy of reading and helps children discover the magic of books.

Reading aloud has always been a bonding ritual for our family. From reading elephant stories to Akhil when he was a baby, to now sharing stories together as a family, books have always brought us closer. That’s why we were especially excited to read the beloved ‘Gajapati Kulapati’ in both Tamil and English!

Aruna and I are delighted and honoured to be part of @indiareadsaloud, a nationwide campaign by @turningpagesindia to make every child fall in love with reading, one storybook at a time.

Reading aloud has always been a bonding ritual for our family. When Akhil was a baby I would spend hours reading elephant stories to him. So when Aruna and I got the opportunity to read ‘Gajapati Kulapati’ in Tamil & English, we were elated!

Read aloud to your child today. Even just 10 minutes a day makes a BIG difference!

There is relief. There is pride. And then there is the particular feeling of watching your child’s work hang in a room and knowing, he did that.

Sai Akhil Anand is 15 years old. Over the course of three and a half months, he spent 10 to 12 hours a day on each piece in Bindu & Rekha, from the earliest drafts to the works on view today.

His father, Viswanathan Anand, has known a thing or two about devotion to a practice, while his mother, Aruna Anand, witnessed every stage of this journey unfold.
Some things require a level of focus that most people spend years cultivating. Akhil is only 15, and yet it is already evident in his work. ❤️

Bindu & Rekha is now open at @sgmf2020 at Gallery G, until 30th June’26.

Some of the best therapy moments don’t look like therapy at all! They look like laughter, messy hands, bright colours and little moments of confidence growing quietly in the background.
Watching Ann make rainbow noodles is a beautiful reminder that learning, movement and independence can be nurtured through joy. Every colour mixed, every noodle explored and every smile shared carries its own little victory.
Again- progress isn’t loud. Sometimes it is simply a child having fun, feeling included and believing in their own abilities a little more each day.

Harini started as Ann’s math tuition teacher- unsure, anxious, and stepping into a world she had never known. A child with special needs, and yes, a mother who could be difficult. It wasn’t easy, and there were moments she could have walked away. But she didn’t.

Somewhere along the way, Ann became more than a student. She became someone she cared deeply for. Today, she isn’t just a caregiver—she’s her safe space, her support system, her best friend.

This is your reminder: you don’t have to be a parent, therapist, or relative to make a difference. Sometimes, all it takes is choosing to stay. #cerebralpalsyawareness #cerebralpalsy #disabilityawareness #inclusivecare #childdevelopment
