2. ABOUT ME :
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY:
MY DESIGN PHILOSOPHY REVOLVES AROUND THE SUBCONCIOUS LEVEL OF
VISION. THE INFATUATION WITH STRANGE AND DARK. I LIKE TO EXPLORE
WITH SILHOUETTES, WORK ON THE MOOD OF THE THEME, AND WITH DIFFERENT
MATERIALS, FOLLOWING A SURREALISTIC APPROACH TOWARDS MY WORK.
“NORMAL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, WHAT IS NORMAL TO SPIDER IS CHAOS TO
FLY”.-MORTRICIA ADDAMS.
STRENGTH :
FASHION ILLUSTRATIONS, DETAILED HANDWORK, COLOUR SENSIBILITY, RE-
SEARCH, CONCEPTT BUILDING CONVEYING MY STORY.EXPLORING MATERIALS ,
STITCHES, AND TECHNIQUES OF ENHANCEMENT OF FABRIC.

3. STYLING AND PHOTOGRAPHY:

4. ILLICIT MURKY DANCE :
THE LIGHT, HER EXISTENCE, THE DARKNESS HER MUSIC, THE SHADOW,
HER PARAMOUR.
SHE LAY STILL, LADEN IN CALM SLUMBER,UNAWARE OF THE LINGER-
ING SHADOW, THAT FOLLOWS HER WITH DARKNESS, REVEALING ITSELF IN
CORNERS, THROWN ON WALLS, BREATHING ON THE EDGE OF HER ABOUND……
HE DANCES IN A RHYTHM ,WOOING HER ,CONSUMING HER, THE DANCE
LIKE THAT OF SERPENTS, INTERWINING, SUAVE SND HIDDEN . THE LOVE
AFFAIR IN THE SLOW ILLICIT MURKY DANCE.

8. ROMEO AND JULIET :
“VANITY IS SYNONYMOUS TO ADORATION. IT’S THE ARTLESS MIRROR YOU FALL
IN LOVE WITH. THAT SHINY PIECE OF TOY RUTHLESS ,SOMETIMES TEASES THE
EYES, PLAYS WITH THE BRAIN AND MAKES LOVE TO VANITY. CALL IT AN IN-
FATUATION SO STRONG; COMPARABLE TO A FABLE BUT SO FATAL, BE CALLED
ROMEO AND JULIET.”
THE METHOD WAS TO POTRAY THE SAME MODEL IN AN ALTER EGO OF
OPPOSITE SEX (PLAYED BY THE SAME MODEL),TO SHOW THE ROMANCE WITH
ONESELF. THE THREE BACKGROUND IMAGES, EACH SYMBOLIZING AN ICONIC
MOMENT OF THE STORY, NAMELY THEIR FIRST DANCE, THE MEETHING AT THE
BALCONY AND THE FATAL ENDING .
THE STORY OF ROMEO AND JULIET RE-INTERPRETED AS A STORY OF SELF
OBSESSION, FALSE PRIDE, DILLUSIONS AND THE BURST OF HARD HITTING
REALITY.

9. The love story, humble in its
beginnings
.A girl, her mirror and the False
pride, watch her spin as takes
nothing but a dance with flat-
tery, magic of sweet talk, sound of
thoughts coated in a symphony on a
piano whispering softly but with
intent to hypnotise and put you into
the deep, dark slumber of vanity .

10. The self-adulation takes a deceptive form of a companion and slowly creeps in the blanket of dark with descriptions ignorant to reality, it becomes the shape of an alter ego. It convinces you to dream castles while standing on a balcony with broken
windows of truth.
The self-adulation takes a
deceptive form of a companion and
slowly creeps in the blanket of
dark, with descriptions ignorant to
reality, it becomes the shape of an
alter ego.
It convinces you to dream castles
while standing on a balcony with
broken windows of truth, reality.

11. But alas like every epic love
story it ends in a tragic
bereavement.
It does not take long for
obsession to turn fatal, like
poison reflecting potion, the
alter ego now numb put in a cas-
ket of truth.
Alone ,left bereft.
An outcry, a
shattering sound , a broken girl,
her broken toy and it all ends .

12. THE FALLEN QUEEN :
PLAYING WITH THE TRADITIONAL ATTIRES, A CLASSY COTTON SAREE
AND RE-INVENTED THE LOOK IN A QUIRKY MANNER AGAINST THE
SUMPTUOUS BACKGROUND OF MUGHAL ARCHITECTURE.
SHE BROKE THE BARRIERS , AS SHE OPENED THE GATES , SHE MARCHED
WITH CURIOSITY.
SHE TRAVELLED HIGH AND KEEN WHILE THE ENVIOUS LAND CALLED HER
“THE FALLEN QUEEN”.

16. STORIES IN STROKES
ARTWORKS SKETCHES :

TEXTURE.

A SMILE SPREADS TO SEE A SIMPLE OUTLINE THAT IS
SIGNIFICANTLY LOUDER THAN THE CLUTTER OF CRACKS
AND DIRT AROUND IT ,IN THE DIRTY CORNER, LIKE A
BLOOM AMIDST WILD GRASS.

21. DUST TO DIGITAL:
MEDIUM : MIX MEDIA
CONCEPT : SIMPLY CONEVEYS THE PROGRESS OF MY NATION, FROM
THE NEWSPAPER COLLAGE AT THE BASE WITH CITY NAMES I WAS
BORN IN, EDUCATED IN, RESIDED IN. RISIG MANPOWER NOW WITH
POTENTIAL OF GREAT ENDEVOURS, LIKE A WOLF LEADING ITS
PACK, THE BIRDS, AN INDICATION OF THE RISING GOAL, THE SKY
IS THE LIMIT, THE FREEDOM OF THOUGHTS, FOR IDEAS TO FLOW.
THE TENTACLES ENGULFING AND ATTACHING AT EVERYTHING THAT
IS OF VALUE . THE CIRCUIT RUNNING DEEP WITHIN THE HEART OF
THE COUNTRY REPRESENTS THE STRONG USP OF THE IT CENTER .

23. STYLIZED ILLUSTRATIONS
(MANISH ARORA AW’14):
THE IDEA WAS TO INTERTWINE EVERY CROQUI, RELATING
EACH OTHER WITH SARCASM AND MOCERY OF CONFORMED
VIEWS. THE DEFINITIONS OF PRETTY ARE NEVER
DEFINED IN ART , THE DISFIGURATION AS IT VISUALLY
APPEARS DEPICTS THE FLOW IN HUMAN NATURE, THE
HIDDEN DRIPPING SATIRE AND FICKLE MOULDING
PERCEPTIONS.

25. CONCEPTUAL COLLECTIONS :
THE ADDAMS FAMILY
“NORMAL IS JUST AN ILLUSION”
LIFE STORY SEEMS TO BE TINGED WITH GALLOWS HUMOUR HERE AND THERE.
EMBRACING IT EVEN IN MACABRE, MAKING LIGHT THE CONCEPTS CONSIDERED A
TABOO.
““I THINK BEAUTY IN HORROR — OR HORROR IN BEAUTY — IS SUCH A
SUCCESSFUL MATCH BECAUSE BEAUTY ITSELF IS NOT ENOUGH; IT’S GREAT TO
LOOK AT BUT EVENTUALLY THE BRAIN BECOMES BORED. IT’S WITH THE
COMBINATION OF THE TWO THAT SOMETHING TRULY INTERESTING IS CREATED.”-
Rebekah Joy Plett
THE ADDAMS FAMILY APPEALS TO MY EYES, TINGLES MY HUMOUR AND INSPIRES
MY THOUGHTS.

- SALVADOR DALI
“PARANOIC-CRITICAL METHOD” THE METHOD WAS THE ABILITY OF THE BRAIN TO
PERCEIVE LINKS BETWEEN THINGS WHICH RATIONALLY ARE NOT LINKED. DALÍ
“SPONTANEOUS METHOD OF IRRATIONAL KNOWLEDGE BASED ON THE CRITICAL AND
SYSTEMATIC OBJECTIVITY OF THE ASSOCIATIONS AND INTERPRETATIONS OF DELIRI-
OUS PHENOMENA.”
THE IDEA WAS TO USE THE SAME CONCEPT IN THE GARMENTS, USE FORMS AND
SHAPES FROM SWANS AND ELEPHANTS TO CREATE
DESIGNS THAT HAVE ILLUSIONS, WHICH GARMENT IS PERCIEVED HOW DEPENDS ON
THE OBSERVERS ABILITY TO LINK THE FORMS TO
VISUALISE SOMETHING RATIONAL.
