Passionate Textile & Surface Designer with experience in embroidery, surface development, and luxury textile applications. Skilled in balancing digital and handcraft explorations across prints, embellishments, and fabric manipulations, with a strong eye for detail and problem-solving during sampling and production. Inspired by traditional Indian crafts and contemporary aesthetics, I am particularly interested in luxury textiles and couture surface developments. https://www.behance.net/Pratiksha_D
