Lambanis of Hampi: Craft documentation
We studied and documented the embroidery art of the Lambani's and its effect and possible growth of tourism in the city of Hampi. Due to a lack of structure and being spread out over Hampi as unorganised communities, it is hard for the tourists, to have cultural exchange with the tribe leading to decline in the value. #Field_study #2019

Pottery of Karnataka: Craft Documentation
The diyas that we have grown up seeing as an integral part of almost all Hindu festivals, the traditional feel associated with pottery as well as the intricate craftsmanship of the cluster inspired us towards knowing more about this craft. The focus of our study intends to be the material itself, its journey, from raw to final product, as well as the way that it is processed at the various stages before its final outcome.
