Sriya – Second Inning
A venture started by a daughter-mother duo. Daughter an ex-banker who left her corporate world of 2 decades to pursue her passion for art. A mother who is Septuagenarian, with a zest for life and belief that happiness is homemade. All through her life, she has donned many hats from daughter, wife, mother, granny, homemaker, and a strong supporter in adversary.
Sriya is the second inning for both the mother-daughter duo, in the field of handloom, handicraft and home decor to bring happiness through handmade weaves and embroideries.
We started with the belief that the decor of the wall is equally important as choosing a piece of furniture. Beautiful art with vibrant colors brings energy to the home. Sriya has been conceptualized in Gujarat, the land of handicrafts, which are an integral part of the lives of people. Embroideries in the art and craft section of Gujarat stand apart. There are various types of embroidery ‘Rabari’, ‘Mutwa’, and ‘soft’ etc. An honest effort to preserve ancient arts and crafts and make them a part of our lives.
Branched out into sarees ad apparel which is hand woven, artistic, and personal, making it the ideal way to create a special heirloom or a source of pride for the person who owns it. The process requires an investment of time.
Nothing can beat the beauty of articles made with love and vision, the designs carved meticulously on various clothes bears a powerful imprint of the old tradition.
Life is a celebration of colours and tradition !!!!!!
Importance of wall art:
The continuing presence of our handcrafted art may seem novel in a contemporary society of digital distractions, but it's a powerful artistic tool that has a place firmly threaded since time immemorial. The Bayeux Tapestry depicting the Norman conquest of England in 1066 is one of the world's most famous works of embroidery and measures 70 m x 50 cm, is embroidered with stem stitch and double couching on unbleached linen and is thought to have been embroidered in 1076. Since time immemorial, wall art as the primary thing making indoor areas stand out from the rest and add up to the satisfaction of their owner Different handmade wall art designs may be chosen as per the theme of your home. They are made of a variety of materials and adorned in myriad ways. Some of the popular materials used are:
- Mud/clay
- Jute and coir
- Paper
- Cloth
- Canvas
Embroidery is another medium, where threads are used to stitch decorative designs onto fabric. With its myriad of visual possibilities and rich history, embroidery in various forms has existed as long as man has been able to produce fabric. The word embroidery comes from the French word broderie meaning embellishment.
This has been an inspiration for starting Sriya as a venture to make the most precious possession – home as a most beautiful place full of color, culture, vibrancy, and memories.
We have chosen medium of cloth which has different patterns and stories hand made with different threads, as they are brightly colored and look festive – Making every day festive
