About Textile & Mixed Media Art

When you first encounter these pieces, the urge to reach out and touch the textures is natural—and that is exactly the point. Unlike traditional oil-on-canvas, these works use fibers, embroidery, and diverse found objects that react differently to light throughout the day. If you are placing these in a room with direct sunlight, we recommend keeping them slightly away from the path of harsh rays to preserve the natural pigments of the threads and delicate mixed-media elements.

This collection explores the intersection of traditional craft and contemporary Indian art. Here, painting is not limited to a flat surface. Artists like Rakhee Shenoy challenge how we view reality, constructing surrealist collages that blend embroidery, digital elements, and paint to tell stories about human memory and domestic life. Her work often incorporates personal objects, making the art feel like a living diary.

Then there are the tactile, structural works of Julie Kagti, who draws deeply from her Assamese heritage to push the boundaries of textile art. She uses natural fibers and traditional weaving techniques to create pieces that explore identity and environmental consciousness. These aren't just decorative wall hangings; they are a dialogue between the past and the present, designed to add depth and warmth to a space.

We also feature the work of artists like Anuradha Bhaumick, whose hand-embroidered pieces create 'mini-universes.' These works celebrate the mundane and the domestic, elevating simple scenes of women in daily life into vibrant, textured narratives. Whether you are looking for contemporary Indian home decor that sparks conversation or a piece of mixed media painting that brings an unconventional aesthetic to your collection, these works offer a sensory experience. If you are unsure how these textures will translate into your own home, reach out to us. We can guide you through the process of selecting pieces that resonate with your space and lifestyle.
