"Artists use lies to tell the truth.
Yes, I created a lie.
But because you believed it,you found something true about yourself."-Alan Moore

A potent, which lies beneath all your dreams, is 'Imagination'. And it is the sole weapon which helps you to build a unique territory for yourself where your worried soul often finds solace. The voice that reverberates there can well charm other ears and echo with a subtle resonance in their hearts...

As we travel through the varied contours of our life, we nurture some profound bonds or friendships, you may well treat them as elixirs as they have the potent to keep you heartily alive. But have you ever thought of naming a friendship- bestowing upon it a sense of freedom?!

There was an intriguing camaraderie shared by some art lovers and they fondly entitled it as 'Lavender'..! 'Lavender- Imaginations beyond...'

No! The name of these constellation of creative spirits were not chosen randomly. It emerged from an abiding memory of my friend, Rajendrani. And I would like to bring forth snippets of that lingering conversation where she poured out her heart to us..
".....the whiff of mountain air pervaded my nostrils, crept into my blood as we escaped to the calm and pristine Bhutan...amidst the breathtaking vista of azure blue sky, powder-white hovering clouds and hills hugging each other I found a handful of Jacaranda trees in front of Punakha Dzong...there awe-inspiring rich hues I can still envision...it was lavender, a mesmerizing, exhilarating shade of bluish purple..."

And that was her tryst with 'Lavender'! Hence, we embarked on our journey with hearts full of imagination and eyes filled with wander..

At the far recess of our heart lie some thoughts which crave for identity.  And often do we wonder how to give them a frame. They need manifestation, an explicit expression for which we invite you to the overtures of 'Lavender'.

Our identification

Each and every piece of our art descends from the womb of our imagination and bespeaks a story. They all are unrestrained expressions of passion that throbs deep within!

"Though it's 'lavender' it has myriad shades..it carries with itself shades of 'purity', 'innocence', and 'devotion', devotion to your true state! It is a graceful journey to find stories unheard. We conjure up each item gathering inspirations from real life. At times it feels that our efforts measure up to the ardour of a wanderer in the unfathomable sea in search of Polaris...", in the words of Swagata.

The entrance of our Studio... We welcome you with a slice of nature.

So come, nourish 'Lavender' with the creative energies latent inside you. Do not hesitate to vent out your unparallel ideas and mould them into cherishable souvenirs of this odyssey. It offers a platform to all introverts like us to be fearless with their dreams and your hobbies to gain a pedestal!

Come in touch with us to delve deep into the joy of creation and be a part of 'Lavender'. The warm folds of this bond will definitely enrich your soul..

Hope you would like to meet your most amicable team mates and join hands with them.
