About the Programme

An interactive tapestry weaving ‘artist in me workshop’ inspired by Tyeb Mehta’s iconic diagonal series, led by artist Akshata Mokashi. Learn tapestry essentials: warping, interlocking, texture play, and color balance. Each participant creates a small piece drawn from a fragment of Mehta's painting. Together, these individual visions merge into one collaborative tapestry—a living dialogue between structure and feeling, fragmentation and wholeness.
