LIVINGS TRADITIONS A CELEBRATION OF INDIAN WOMEN CERAMIC ARTISTS

RACHNA PARASHER

Noida-based artist Rachna Parasher showcased two series, the Excavation Series and Anagama Series. The Excavation Series was crafted on a weathered wood pedestal, while the Anagama Series titled Bindu symbolised Devi Shakti and her action in the universe. Another attraction were pieces like Bodhi, which represented a twice-born Brahmin: one with a bodhi pointing up for ego and other pointing down for humility.

INDRANI SINGH CASSIME

Puducherry-based Indrani Singh Cassime is renowned for crafting exquisite pieces with clay. Using clay from a native lake, firing in her Anagama kiln and glazing with ash from the firewood lends her creations an incomparable rustic and sublime quality. Her expertise lies in infusing beauty into every item while taking advantage of the powerful traditional techniques like Anagama kiln firing. Through her studio Phoenix Potteries, she continues to create stunning artwork with Anagama kilns.

SARASWATI

Saraswati is a Puducherry-based Russian artist. At the age of 12, she started taking ceramics classes and had her first solo show by the time she was 20. Moving to Auroville reignited Saraswati’s ceramic art practice, giving life to a unique and whimsical miniature style of art. Her recent works reflect her spontaneous personality, merging architectural themes with organic forms.
