Daman
The National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) Daman Campus Textile Design students displayed their creativity as semester jury examinations are underway. As part of their coursework, students have been displaying their exceptional skills in various disciplines. One such display was seen in the Basic Weaves subject, where students presented their marvellous work before the jury panel.
Inspired by the ancient civilization of Mohenjo-Daro, students Anushka Mairal and Aparna Kumari worked on a unique weaving project. Their design featured two prominent elements found on Mohenjo-Daro stamps, The Dancing Girl, and horse-like creatures. The colour palette chosen was earthy tones, with browns and blacks dominating the fabric. To add texture and interest, the students used the herringbone weave technique to fill in the spaces between the motifs. The project showcased the understanding of basic weaves, which they had learned and practiced in the weaving lab. The jury panel was impressed by the creativity for their ability to draw inspiration from ancient cultures and incorporate it into modern designs.
