The city’s latest exhibition titled Sutr Santati: Then. Now. Next., which opens next week at the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA), contextualises the future of Indian textile through collective and collaborative efforts. The expansive show offers a display of approximately 125 revivalist pieces and contemporary textiles created through hand weaving, embroidery, resist-dyeing, printing, painting, appliqué and forms of yarns and fabric manipulation, by nearly 200 textile artisans, revivalists, designers, craftspersons as well as NGOs. At the heart of a culturally rich India is heterogeneity, which this contemporary textile exhibition aptly spotlights.
