JAYASHRI THAKARE
Textile Designer
As a dedicated and enthusiastic design student, my
focus lies in hand-painted work within the realm of
textiles. I have a deep passion for the interplay of
colors, patterns, and textures that define this field.
My journey in textile design has been fueled by a
curiosity to explore the boundless possibilities
offered by different techniques. I enjoy
experimenting with both traditional methods and
pushing the boundaries of contemporary design. My
commitment lies in creating innovative and
captivating textile solutions. Although my academic
background is in science, I have found great
enthusiasm in the realm of innovative textiles. I value
the exchange of ideas and firmly believe in the power
of teamwork to bring fresh perspectives to the
creative process.

 CONCEPT NOTE

My concept revolves around a vibrant exploration

of the captivating interplay between two distinct
colors: lavender and yellow-green. Lavender, a
soothing and elegant shade of purple, is often
linked to calmness, serenity, and spirituality,
making it a favored choice in interior design and
wellness spaces. In contrast, yellow-green is a
lively and vibrant hue that symbolizes freshness,
growth, and energy. Together, these colors create
a visually striking contrast that can evoke a wide
range of emotions. This concept aims to strike a
balance between relaxation and vitality, offering a
unique fusion of emotions, resulting in a bold and
fashionable product.

dyeing to help fix dyes to materials,

"The Earth's beauty on fabric: Eco
print wonders."
Eco printing is a unique and eco-friendly art style that
uses organic elements to produce complex patterns on
fabric. In my project, marigold and rose flowers are used;
both are renowned for their vivid colors and distinctive
patterns. In addition to adding to the final print's visual
attractiveness, these flowers also impart their own unique
smells to the fabric. You smartly utilized alum as a
mordant to help establish the colors and increase their
life. Your eco designs will stay vibrant and lovely over time
since alum works as a fixative, tying the plant dyes to the
fabric fibers.
