presents “Running Thread” Debut
Solo Exhibition by Ashwini Jadhav
“My works
belongs to my surrounding, nature, human life and daily routine,” says this
young debutante artist, Ashwini Jadhav. Applying her aesthetics as an artist to
her skills with patchwork, this young girl merges the two creative interests
into bespoke works of art, presenting the viewers with “stitched paintings”.
With a
patrimonial legacy of sewing, surrounded by colourful clothes since childhood,
Ashwini has been experimenting with swatches -
cutting out different shapes, forms, examining and playing with textures
and consequently, making myriad compositions.
“I draw and
paint with shapes of clothes. It’s a new vision for me to work in a novel and
different medium,” she informs.
The artist shows promise in her
experimentation. Her work has been well received in the several group
exhibitions she has held. Only time will tell how far and out-of-box she can
take this unique craft/art in a milieu of accepted conventional fine art.
