We strive to put forth the exploration through digital mediums/media, physical exhibitions-workshops, print media, and print publications, to register and amplify the scope of discussions.
As a part of our outreach efforts, a two-part exhibition has been initiated and is supported. The first leg of the exhibition will be hosted at DakshinaChitra Museum, Chennai, in the last week of August extending till mid-September, coinciding with the Madras Month celebrations of 2024. Hosted by the Thinai Foundation, this physical exhibition promises to be an interesting exploration at the crossroads of the fashion world and cultural heritage.
