CRAFTING FOR CONTEMPORARY SPACES

By turning threads into a language of emotion and structure, SAUMYA KASHYAP of Vystrit is shaping a new Indian art form

- Kayal Arivalan

In an era where design is often driven by technology, Saumya Kashyap's work stands apart for its uniqueness. Founder and chief artist of Bengaluru-based design studio Vystrit, she specialises in Veyari, a pioneering contemporary Indian art form that weaves thread onto rattan cane to create tactile, narrative-rich surfaces. Neither textile nor painting, Veyari exists at the intersection of art, craft, and spatial design.
