Adigami
Adigami by Aditi Anuj is an origami studio that aims to take the simplicity of folding a single sheet of paper to unexplored dimensions by collaborating - in a quest to produce unique artworks. At Adigami it is about freedom that a single sheet of paper offers, to transform your ideas into tangible forms. Origami has forever been associated with being an art form for a particular age. Our motto is to bring to awareness the potential a piece of paper has and the multiple fields it can be applied to, rather than just being a children’s craft.

WOLF

It is based on the belief of slowing down, creating a better quality of life and a better sense of community but never without fun, playfulness and whimsy. Generational craft practices have found their way in many of their narrative based works, especially with crafts of Jaipur city. Their work is process driven - often dependent on material. The audience they engage with are school students - sensitising this generation to changing perception of waste. The sting of their practice in Jaipur is also carefully considered - being an older city with a thriving craft/artisan community. Their work is a conscious art practice, telling stories through found objects.
