*MeMeraki Collaboration Experience with Sukhiram ji, Creative Dignity, and Gond Art*
It was an incredible experience collaborating with Creative Dignity and the talented Gond artist, Sukhiram ji, as a Lead designer at MeMeraki. Our collaboration aimed at creating a collection of modern denim jackets 'I am Fearless' that depicted the symbolic representation of women as tigresses, breaking free from societal and gender barriers to achieve excellence in their respective fields where we can all be fearless #IamFearless
Working closely with Sukhiram ji, I had the opportunity to immerse myself in his artworks, styles, and motifs. Together, we brainstormed and developed a theme that beautifully captured the essence of empowered women. His understanding of our feedback and his valuable input truly made this collaboration seamless.
The process of translating Gond art onto denim fabric posed its challenges, but Sukhiram ji's craftsmanship truly shone through. His adaptability from his traditional learning to the modern taste palette was remarkable. The result was a collection of denim jackets that not only showcased the intricacy and vibrancy of Gond art but also celebrated the fearless modern women who inspire and create stories of inspiration every day.
Throughout the collaboration, I found great joy in witnessing Sukhiram ji's enthusiasm and dedication. His artistic vision and ability to bring the tigress motif to life on each jacket were commendable. Seeing his artwork shine in the midst of the denim design process was truly gratifying.
It was an honor to work with Sukhiram ji and witness the fusion of traditional Gond art with contemporary fashion. This collaboration allowed us to showcase the beauty, strength, and resilience of women through the medium of art.
I hope that viewers of our collection will be inspired by the narratives depicted on the denim jackets. These pieces are meant for the fearless modern women who dare to break boundaries and pursue excellence in their fields. This collaboration stands as a testament to the power of artistic expression and its ability to bring forth stories of empowerment and inspiration. ~Viskakha Agrahari, Lead Designer, MeMeraki
