About Isha Pimpalkhare

Today I have Isha Pimpalkhare with us on Audiogyan. Isha is a mixed media designer/artist, who situates her practice at the convergence of art and design, with a focus on creating emotive and engaging tactile environments. She did her Masters in Textiles from the Royal College of Art(RCA), London, and Bachelors in Textile Design at the National Institute of Design(NID), Ahmedabad.

For me, the Textile design is relatively new. I have come up with a few basic questions to gain some beginner level understanding of this domain and discuss a few of the interesting projects which Isha has been exploring.
