Inspired by Lahore’s jaalis, ornamental arches, frescoed surfaces, mosque interiors, and garden motifs, this hands-on session invites participants to explore texture, pressure, and pattern through metallic foil and simple embossing tools. Lahore’s visual culture serves as both reference and inspiration, reflecting traditions passed down through generations of South Asian art and design. Participants will work with Mughal floral and geometric motifs, learning how historic forms translate into contemporary craft practice.
This session is a sensory and reflective making experience; an invitation into slow craft, creative play, and cultural memory. Participants are encouraged to engage with heritage not as something static or distant, but as something felt through the hands.
