Project LooM is a partnership between lovers of Indian handloom.
It is supported by Taneira: a TATA product and we are grateful for their assistance.
The goal is to showcase and celebrate the people, places and processes behind India’s wonderful handwoven sarees.
Gujarat is an astonishingly diverse state with respect to textiles and crafts. There are techniques galore: ashavali brocade weaves, the fabulous bhujodi which is now all the rage, tangaliya woolen weaves, ajrakh block prints, bandhini tie-dye and fabric resist, the double ikat Patan patola which is a triumph of technique and imagination, the single ikat Rajkot patolas, and many others. These videos explore the many facets of Gujarat and its textiles.
