Meet the artist who transforms government buildings into vibrant facades

Airports are where you feel overwhelmed with the bag checking, weighing, ticket scanning, and security check as if you are always running out of time, and metro stations are where you eagerly wait for the metro to arrive, making sure that the clock does not tick too fast and you are not late for work.

However, at times when you have reached the airport almost too early or have a few minutes to spare before your next metro ride arrives, the exquisite murals and sculptures are bound to make you stop in your tracks and appreciate the beauty and grace they showcase, often preserving and depicting the rich Indian cultural legacy.

Whether it is the art installations at major stations, including the Botanical Garden to Janakpuri West, or the iconic portrayals representing cultural narrative at UNESCO, New Delhi, or even the exclusive art inside the Judges' Tunnel at the Supreme Court of India, the common factor joining them all would be the tête pensante (mastermind) Mr Rajesh Krishnan, the founder and principal designer of East Craft Designs Pvt. Ltd. A brainchild of his, this organisation is synonymous with creating bold and intricate bespoke artworks that shed light on the cultural legacy of Indian art.
