Description

Artisans in a number of countries have local, folk traditions of tie dying fabrics. In recent years, they have become increasingly aware of each other's work. A few of India's bandhani artisans have begun experimenting with techniques they've learned from Japanese shibori craftspeople. The result is this contemporary and vibrant style of hand dyed art. This piece's design heritage is clearly the Indian tie-dye tradition called mothara. But its freedom of form reflects the Indian artisan's contemporary experimentation with shibori techniques.
