Chanchal~Bringing Art to Life

  • Chanchal At Sunday Soul Sante

  • Stories Across India - A trip to Himachal

    My work and my love for travel together have given me opportunities to explore villages and towns of our vast country that lay hidden. I like to travel like a local. I prefer living in homestays to experience the local lifestyle, I travel using local transport if available (sometimes it takes hours to get a bus), talking to complete strangers on my way!

    Continuing my Kanchipuram experience from last month

    Many families living in the temple town of Kanchipuram and nearby villages have their own looms and weaving is done at home. Usually every member of the family is part of the process and weaving is the last part of the technical process.
