The artist, who is known for her keen eye for detail and focus on sustainability, has madefunctional 
art that she started working on in 2021. It is also the first time that she has taken a bold step 
and worked on ergonomics to give a better seating experience.
 
Talking about the inspiration, Jain shares, “Since childhood, I have had a minimalist upbringing because of my mother. Later on, I started buying things based on brand or status but suddenly I realised that it is not something I identify with and certainly not something that makes me happy. That is when this idea came to my mind.”

This series will definitely pique the interest of art enthusiasts, who will get to see Jain’s artworks like never before in her career. 

Interwoven Destinies

As she uses a new approach and different type of execution, Jain is humble to admit that there were challenges but one look at the artworks will tell you that she has dealt with them head on to produce fine pieces of artworks that will grab eyeballs immediately.
Clustered Connections
Pushing the limits of her artistic capabilities, Jain has used thread with cardboard for one
artwork ‘Interwoven Destinies’. She has not only given the feel of fabric to the artwork 
but also captured the behaviour of fabric when it gets stretched because of thread. 
In another piece ‘Clustered Connections’, there is an interplay between fabric and 
buttons and personally her favourite among the exhibits. For her third creation 
called ‘Child’s Play‘, the artist has shown the emotions of childhood at play 
depicting the warm pressure on the face, and is excited to see how people
react to it as it comes from a childhood memory. Last but not the least,
‘Dune’ is the fourth and final artwork that will be on display at the prestigious festival.
