IICD is committed to the growth of the Craft sector through education. Education means over all development and growth of an individual and is much more than mere classroom learning. The faculty of research and innovation and preserving our heritage that teaches us many nuances is of prime importance when we talk of the crafts sector. A congregation of experienced and educated people in the sector of crafts, exchanging ideas and the research undertaken in this field, could create a powerhouse of learning. With this idea in mind, a conference on ‘Recent Trends and Sustainability in Crafts and Design’ was organised at IICD. Abstracts and full papers began pouring in. We received an overwhelming response from different institutes in India and from outside India too. Each one was unique and we realised the importance of a research platform in this sector. We received excellent papers from professors and students from IITs, NIFTs, NID, MSU Baroda, Lady Irwin College, G.B. Pant University, to name a few.
Alongside the institutes, it was decided to invite our craftsmen, whose expertise is unparalleled and who have so much to offer in terms of skill and understanding of crafts. An artisan Panchayat was held, where eminent artisans from different craft fields were invited and an excellent talk ensued. The jajam on which they sat along with the faculty and staff of IICD and exchanged information in the dim light of the evening was a sight to behold. We were all mesmerised by the end of it. The candid conversation was enriched with information, experience and knowledge of each crafts person.
Our Chief Guest Padma Shree Laila Tayabji, Dr Ghada H. Qaddumi (President, World Crafts Council, APR), all our session chairs, namely, Prof. Paul Singleton (Plymouth College of Arts, U.K.), Mr. Yunus Khimani (Director, City Palace, Jaipur), Mr. K.B. Jinan (Design enthusiast), Mrs. Devika Krishnan (Up-cycling enthusiast), Mr. Sharada Gautam (Head of crafts, Tata Trust), Ms. Ritu Sethi (Craft Revival Trust) and Dr. Anamika Pathak (Curator at National Museum, New Delhi; Chairperson of the Textiles and Clothing Research Centre (TCRC)) all the delegates, artisans, craftsmen, presenters and audience added much value to our first International Conference on crafts at IICD. The papers that were presented talked about the need for marketing, documentation and diversification of crafts alongside innovations in the field of dyeing and printing. The people who were present in the conference benefited from it and those not present, have this proceedings book to read from.
I wish you all an enriching journey through the course of this book. I have to thank Prof. Bhargav Mistry, Dean at IICD, for his guidance and many thanks to Dr. Barun Shankar Gupta, Head of Research at IICD, who painstakingly worked for the success of this conference and for the compilation of this book.
