"I began hand embroidering as a means of self-expression. It's a mindfulness practice and therapeutic way for me to relieve stress.
Having grown up watching my grandma doing embroidery and making handicrafts has always fascinated me. My work is a way for me to commemorate her. The interest was cultivated in my childhood while playing with needles and colourful threads & wools, and self-made fabric dolls used to be my toys. It further developed when I went on to try through practical experience, learning through trial and error and self-learning on the internet.
I rediscovered my love for embroidery during this lockdown while making handmade gifts, and from there I started posting on my social media feeds. I'm very humbled that people admired my work and this encouraged me to start "Door-ae-Dorr" for showcasing my artworks.
I'm really thankful to my co-partner Dibyajyoti Nath for all the support and guidance; right from selecting materials to social media management. I couldn’t ask for a better partner.
Currently, I take orders for making thoughtful personalized gifts, jewellery, decor and handicrafts.
Many thanks to 'Alaap Daily' for featuring my artwork."
