Exploration in Ceramics: Flower Pot Lighting
Summer Internship at Shantiniketan, West Bengal

The internship provided scope for learning something entirely new at Silpa Sadana which is the Centre for Rural Craft, Technology and Design – an institution of the Visva-Bharati University.

As a product design student, avenues were open to explore these processes and methods of pottery and ceramics and come up with interesting products. Consequently I explored the processes of pinching, coiling, and throwing and slabbing to come up with products such as tea cups, lighting fixtures etc. I further laid emphasis on designing a lighting product cum flower pot for houseboats and resorts in Kerala inspired from Kerala art and tradition.
