My initiation into the creative arts has been inspired by my passion for photography and essentially from "just looking around.”. My skills have been enriched by a graduation in textile design from National Institute of Design, India and a scholarship to Konstfack University of Art and Culture, Stockholm.
I am inspired by the feel of handloom fabrics and the fact that its imperfection is its real essence. Textile to me is the tip of an iceberg to a whole plethora of creative ideas; this is personified by my womens wear label 'PAROMITA BANERJEE' which stands for elegant but effective clothing.
