Calligraphy Installations and Wearable Art

This project explores the expressive power of Gujarati letterforms through large-scale calligraphy installations and wearable art. Writing letters on expansive surfaces transformed the experience—amplifying their presence and allowing a deeper appreciation of their form. The process felt like an act of opening, with a meditative quality both for the creator and the viewer.

In a further evolution, the letterforms were brought onto wearable textiles. By integrating language into clothing, the work turns spoken identity into a tangible, visible extension of the self—blending script, body, and expression into one.
