“A sari is never cut to fit one specific woman who drapes it, but is a treasured inheritance. Each sari has a story to tell. The sari—18 feet in length—is an unstitched marvel worn by women across all walks of life, from labourers to queens,” says artist and curator Vara Ramakrishnan.
She recently showcased 34 saris featuring artwork by artists and master weavers for a one-day exhibition held at the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco, USA.
