I turn discarded denim and plain fabric into one-of-a-kind wearable art using natural pigment transfer and custom brushwork. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Don't throw away your old jeans. Let me give them a new life. This video shows how I took a paint-splattered pair of jeans and upcycled them into a piece of abstract wearable art, inspired by a high-fashion design.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/e5fb6503-c0d7-463f-90e4-8e427ab6c891) - [Video: I also create art using nature itself. This is my eco-printing process, where I use real flowers and leaves to transfer their natural pigments directly onto fabric.

For eco-prints, I use actual marigolds and ferns to transfer natural pigments, while my denim upcycling involves a specific layering process to ensure the art flows with the movement of the fabric. These are not factory-finished items; they are raw, durable, and designed to look better with wear. ### Giving Fabric a Second Life My approach to upcycling is simple: nothing is truly wasted if you have a bit of paint and patience. Whether it is a pair of jeans with stubborn stains or a simple cotton kurta that has lost its charm, I see a canvas where others might see clutter. ### The Eco-Printing Method Eco-printing is my way of working with nature. Using fresh botanicals like marigolds, ferns, and petunias, I hammer the pigments directly into natural fibers. Because no two leaves are identical, no two prints will ever be the same. This is not a screen-printing job; it is a gentle, manual transfer process that highlights the organic beauty of the material. ### What You Should Know Before Commissioning - **Fabric Requirements:** I work best with natural fibers like cotton, linen, or raw silk. Synthetic fabrics generally do not hold eco-prints well. - **The 'Raw' Aesthetic:** My painting style focuses on 'raw and imperfect.' If you are looking for machine-perfect symmetry, my style might not be the right fit. I prefer the character of hand-painted, visible strokes. - **Care Instructions:** These pieces are meant to be lived in. Hand-wash them gently in cold water and iron on the reverse side to keep the pigments vibrant. - **Shipping:** You will need to courier your garments to my studio in Ahmedabad. I handle the prep, the art, and the heat-setting to ensure the design lasts. Ready to breathe new life into your wardrobe? Let’s chat about your garment and what art style suits your personality. ## About The Artist I left a career in dentistry because I believe art shouldn't just sit on a wall—it should be worn. Every piece I upcycle is a collaboration between your memory of the garment and my brush, bringing a bit of soul back to your closet.
