Pushpa
Five years of craft, color, and quiet excellence
A Love for Kalamkari
Among all her work, Kalamkari holds a special place in her heart. One of her recent favorites? A beautifully detailed Kalamkari design on pure handloom Kosa silk, a piece that blends tradition with care.
“Mujhe kapdo pe handpainting karna bahut pasand hai… mera pasandida kaam Kalamkari hai.”
("I really enjoy painting on fabric… my favorite work is Kalamkari.")
A Steady Hand and a Creative Heart
Pushpa has been an integral part of Solahkala for the past five years, bringing her steady hands and creative spirit to every piece she paints. Trained at Solahkala's Vocational Training Center, she discovered her love for handpainting early on, and since then, has helped shape some of our most cherished pieces.
Keeping Kalamkari Alive
For Pushpa, Kalamkari is more than a technique, it is a form of storytelling. She carefully selects colors that hold their richness over time, ensuring that every Kalamkari saree not only looks beautiful but also lasts. With each brushstroke, she adds her voice to a tradition passed down through generations. Your support helps preserve this art and encourages artists like Pushpa to keep creating with heart and skill.
