Concerned about animal welfare? Then pick up a designer carpet
If carpets are your calling, and ethical causes matter to you, then we suggest you drop by the Museum Art Gallery for an exhibition titled Floored by Art. It features handwoven carpets created by contemporary masters of art and design. This initiative of Sunil Sethi Design Alliance was conceptualised by Maneka Gandhi and Garima Jain of People for Animals.
This is a fundraiser in aid of the various animal welfare activities initiated by People for Animals. Each masterpiece is approximately 5ft x 7ft and few in squares using the best quality yarns. Each of these limited edition carpets are created by big names including SH Raza, Manjit Bawa, Jehangir Sabavala, Bose Krishnamachari, Ritu Kumar, Rajesh Pratap Singh, Rohit Bal and Manish Arora. Each of these carpets carry a signed certificate by each of these artists.
