".. The 5 ½ Yards exhibition features the expanded way in which the work of Indian artisans and weavers can be creatively applied to fabric to bring alive the artistic sensibility of Namrata in a variety of products — from the traditional saree to keepsake “potli” bags that fit in with home decor products now available from Namrata Weaves..."
“The work of Namrata is much more than the length of fabric,” said Shannon Stokes, Director of Community Impact and Programs at Arts Council. “It is about the inspiring journey of Namrata and how her creative vision bridged communities together and redefined her role in Indian society as a social entrepreneur.” A portion of all sales will support artisans and weavers in India.
..The art of Namrata Mitra comes alive in the carefully curated products sold under the brand “Namrata Weaves.” As a female entrepreneur in India, she started the company modestly in her family's apartment in Kolkata, India.
