“From the time he strode energetically into the
newly-formed People Tree one afternoon, Sunny’s amazing ability to combine
a boundless enthusiasm for new ideas with a hard-nosed sense of business
has helped revive many a flagging project here. Along with his wife,
Meeta, he has been a collaborator, critic, manager, promoter, advisor
and above all one of People Tree’s greatest friends. Sunny and Meeta
have been the force behind the tremendous and sustained work we have
been able to do on natural-dyed and handblock printed textiles amongst
a community of traditional artisans in Rajasthan. To me, they are like
contemporary masters of traditional printing – bringing to their work
an intense personal-technical-practical-intuitive understanding of the
place, the people and the materials.” |
