Pranati Panda | Weaving What We Carry

For Pranati Panda, thread is more than material. It is memory, emotion, and quiet resolve made visible—an element that holds space for what can’t always be spoken aloud. The show shares a deeply personal and meditative body of work where the red thread becomes a lifeline: a stand-in for blood, connection, vulnerability, and endurance. It gathers, knots, stretches, and returns—just like the emotional rhythms it echoes.

Panda works slowly, intuitively, with materials that are light and intimate: cloth, net, glue, and paint. The process is tactile and responsive, each layer shaped by listening—to her own thoughts, to the softness of the material, and to the quiet demands of the form itself. There’s no fixed outcome, only an unfolding. Each stitch becomes an act of presence, a moment of pause in a world that rarely allows for stillness.
