Textile Designer Exploring Tradition and Innovation
Resume:
SUHITA MONDAL
Textile Designer
I am a textile design graduate from NIFT Mumbai, with a strong
interest in exploring the intersection of tradition and contemporary design. My expertise lies in experimenting with colors, motifs, textures, textile techniques, surface design, prints, and illustration. I approach design through curiosity and research, often drawing inspiration from my surroundings and everyday life.
I appreciate engaging with craft clusters to learn techniques from artisans, enriching my skills in embroidery, patchwork, and block printing. My work balances conceptual exploration with technical skill, creating designs that are both meaningful and visually striking ********@*****.***
