Aleena Dhar

My designs and artwork are inspired by nature, real life, and other artworks, utilizing various tools and techniques. I employ palette knives, funnels, hair dryers, straws, turntables, balloons, plastic sheets, and more to achieve a diverse range of effects on canvas or board. Each design concept is meticulously brainstormed and thought through before being recreated on fabric. These designs are then transformed into collections of items like kaftans, dresses, jackets, stoles, and more. The designs are also translated into jewelry, with each piece crafted with great care and love by our expert artisans, resulting in fine jewelry using precious and semi-precious gemstones that can be showcased, adorned, and appreciated by all. My French couture atelier, named "Hummingbird," showcases exquisite handcrafted sterling silver jewelry adorned with precious gems. The atelier also features hand-painted garments and accessories, creating an intimate and authentic French couture ambiance. However, for those seeking a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes creation of my designs and artwork, there is a secret door discreetly tucked away on the back wall. This door leads to a hidden room where some of the messier work takes place. It is a portal to another world, revealing the artistic process that must be witnessed by those who visit the atelier.
