This project presents an interactive installation that showcases the vibrant world of Indian textile heritage, focusing on the artistry of embroidery. It aims to engage Generation Z through an immersive, sensorial experience that combines tradition with technology. By integrating tactile and interactive elements, the installation introduces various embroidery styles, their origins, and the craftsmanship behind them. Designed to bridge the gap between modern audiences and traditional practices, it fosters awareness, appreciation, and inspiration among the younger generation to value and preserve India’s rich textile legacy.
