An “art crush” … that’s actually a massive understatement when describing how much I love the work of Suchitra Mattai, a multi-disciplinary Guyanese American artist of South Asian descent. Here’s a snippet from her full artist statement:

“… I often focus on women’s labor and employ practices and materials associated with the domestic sphere such as embroidery, weaving, various fiber elements, etc.  I re-imagine vintage and found materials that have a rich past as a way of creating a dialogue with the original makers and the time periods in which they were cherished as well as a means of navigating my own personal narrative.  I often use vintage saris as a way of connecting women of the South Asian diaspora from around the world…”

Vintage saris!!! So beautiful, so brilliant. You can find her on Instagram at @suchitramattaistudio.
