Anupama Swaminathan





Montreal based Anupama Swaminathan has a degree in Fine Arts and she put it to good use when she decided to launch her eponymous lifestyle brand Anupama. The line of products showcases the age old hand drawn Kalamkari technique with a contemporary flavour.

  2. superbear, if you like them so much I'll get you a couple from here. It won't be the same but it will be similar.

  3. Lovely textiles. They seem vaguely Victorian to me.

  4. Yeah , I see it too Ambika. I think she's tried to mix it up a bit.

  5. SO beautiful, and true to being "kalamkari", unlike the kitsch block prints we see these days. I wish she sold them somewhere in Copenhagen too. I did a saree like this recently, where the pallu was in kalamkari.
