ABOUT SELLER

Richa Uppal, Founder and CEO is an alumni of University of the Arts London, UK and National Institute of Fashion Technology, India. For her Takshni is a revelation. It is in heart a love story and a passion that verges on fascination: that of a fashion designer for altogether another area of design; mixed-media and kinetic sculptures. During her research on inclusive growth through craft; for her MA, she met indigenous artists residing in tribal belts of India. She made a decision to bring two different strata of society together to create something unique. Takshni is at its seed stage where rural artisans are trying to create art pieces by adapting to applied science and technology. In years to come, Takshni is conjured to foster rural Indian artisan and create distinctive sculptures.
