“Where’s the light”, she muttered as she looked frantically in her cupboard.
There had been a sudden power-cut and her journaling got interrupted. Now she was looking for light both literally and figuratively! As she looked and looked, a thought struck her. What if she could enjoy the darkness for a while? She went out to the balcony and looked at the spectacular constellations shining above. “There’s the light”, she smiled to herself. And, that smile turned into a sunflower of hope that blossomed in the dark!
This saree is Suta’s celebration of handwoven cotton Jamdani.
Jamdani, an incredibly intricate weaving technique, is not just a craft but a legacy. The process of weaving a Jamdani saree takes many days and is a labour of love. The designs are first drawn on graph paper and the weaving pattern is ideated. The design is then woven into the saree by controlling the weft as the warp remains the base. This technique of weaving makes the motifs appear like they are floating on the extremely soft and fluid cotton fabric of the saree. Jamdani sarees are painstakingly woven on handlooms by master weavers and their mastery is reflected in the surreal gorgeousness of each saree.
