About the Event
We invite you to join our OM SELF DISCOVERY ART ADDA and TEXTILE TRAIL which is a new format of cross pollination art residency where both trained artists and novices are invited to participate and explore their inner creativity in the rural homestay setting of ours.
The event will run from the 24 Feb 2020 (we suggest your arrival in Dimapur on the 23 Feb) to 02 Mar 2020. The residency and workshop will be conducted by three artists from different parts of the world. Gillian Lasker Lourenco is an Art Therepist from South Africa who belives in the philosophy of 'Awekening Spirit through Art' and will be introducing this practice of nonjudgmental take towards artmaking. Michelle Fine is a self taught artist from London who makes visual stories from found objects and will be taking you through her process of storytelling. Jayshree Bhagwanani is a Folk Artist from Chattisgarh, India who works with merging various folk art forms found in India and will be introducing few of those artforms. These artists will be cross pollinating the event along with our Naga women weavers and Naga wood carvers in tandem along with some local enthusiasts.
