Artisan
Nandini Nayak is a 33-year-old appliqué artisan based in Pipili, Puri district, Odisha. She began learning the craft at the age of 19 within a family-based context. Her practice differs slightly in its reliance on sewing machines, indicating a shift toward faster production methods within domestic and small-scale workshop settings. Working primarily with fabric, her engagement with appliqué is less tied to ritual production and more aligned with everyday or utilitarian outputs. Her work reflects a more recent entry into the craft, shaped by changing production tools and evolving market conditions, while still anchored in inherited knowledge systems.
