In The Kurta: The Space, a kurta blouse becomes a space for memory: embroidered vignettes of the artist’s daughter repeat across the fabric like a lived diary. Framed as an object rather than worn, the garment holds an intimate record of motherhood. It shifts from clothing to testimony, giving memory a tangible place through pattern, repetition and care.
