Rehnuma: The Guiding Star

Bridging distances in time, space, language and perspectives, we kick start this week in New York with our exhibition presenting a collection of unique textiles hand printed and natural dyed by Artisan Designers of the desert of Kutch, India. The exhibition seeks to create value for the whole of the work: concept and creation.

Judy Frater, who developed and directed the first program of design education for traditional artisans of Kutch, discussed craft traditions in a changing world, restoring creative agency through education, and the personal expressions and innovations of the Ajrakh textiles on display. She demonstrated how shared understanding can reveal the ethos of sustainability and reinvent the essential human connection of hand craft.
