Architect Veena Chandran turns potter to give a new dimension to her creativity
Taking the meaning of the word vision to a whole new level,Veena Chandran,an architect by profession,is organising Visions in Clay — a stoneware ceramic exhibition showcasing her works. The exhibition will showcase functional stone ware items including mugs,vases,teapots,wall pieces and more. Also on display are tureens and jars that throw a funky angle to something thats part of our everyday lives and could make for original and very unique gifts.
Chandran strongly believes that the pieces can replace plastic and help each of us make our own little contribution towards environmental protection. Her pieces show her creativity,her own style of presentation and her very own work of art and thats what makes her to stand apart from others,according to Chandran. Highly enthusiastic and excited to know peoples reactions to her signature works,Chandran says,It was my longstanding dream to work in the ceramic industry and here I am,exhibiting my own creativity. I am lucky that I have got a chance to live my dream. So,if you want a fresh perspective on ceramic,you know where to head.
(Visions in Clay will be on at the Colours Art Gallery from November 27 to 29)
