About

Working with discarded clothing, this Kerala-based artist cuts, sews, and repurposes textiles into forms of protest. Her work amplifies the resistance of communities deemed "waste" by oppressive systems. She insists that every thread carries memory, labour, and origin.

Stitching becomes thinking. Fabric becomes testimony.
