Thanks @nuriya_makeupartist and your brush for tuning me up this Mother’s Day.
Hear that? It’s @taramacleanmusic the voice that always brings me home, back to myself.
Miss you Tar ❤️

@paaprikastore works diligently at highlighting heirloom crafts from regions around India and marrying them with wearable, sustainable fabrics, like this authentic (there’s a lot of let’s say ‘dilution’ of traditional Kalamkari techniques in the market) natural Kalamkari saree with a gorgeous Pallu – depiction of a woman and bird deep in conversation. This sari was handmade by artisans in Sri Kalahasthi, Andhra Pradesh.
Natural Kalamkari involves 23 steps (that’s right TWENTY THREE!) of cleaning, drying, bleaching, starching, hand painting and more. I think of the process of transmission and the artisan’s hands, the same hands that finally immerse the Kalamkari fabric in the Swarnmukhi river which bestows the fabric – initiation like – with a unique red hue that no other river water offers.
I’m honoured to wear this gorgeous creation that embodies a pure dedication to India’s craft.

An appreciation post for @bioliteuae for helping transform this middle aged broad’s sun worn complexion. Appreciation as well for @nuriya_makeupartist skillful eye and brush. She knows how to bring a subtle glow to this 50 year old’s skin.
Might also have something to do with @rashichowdhary 15 day gut cleanse (@thecollective_rc) the ayurvedic principles, lifestyle, and preventive care accessed through @egawellnessindia ; earth diving myths I’ve been reading while marinating in the wonder of life, wing tipped with the love of family and topped with grati-poo for the entire beautiful mess of it.

Thanks @mada_sasa_
The Pilates plot continues with these movement archives. Every session is different, an inaugural feeling, sometimes a stiffness that takes an hour to release, a cramp or a delicious release, a long neglected muscle that makes its presence known, like a toddler bursting into the room.
I don’t know if Pilates can be described as a becoming and unbecoming but I know we have been conditioned to hate parts of ourself (short torso, Eastern European thighs) and I don’t know if it has to do with the fading retrograde, but with each class there’s more appreciation for all my bits. Flawed and precious. Thank you body.

In the secret part of my mind all the grace of the world fuses with this forest, this red earth, with the thickness of the air soaking up distant bells, with this moment.

Clearly, the Song of the Good Red Earth was born buried in me, like a secret sorrow. And furthermore cheering on crashing monkeys from this particular verandah cannot be underestimated for delivering a shivers of delight.
But back to the red earth and how it owns me. ‘Can you see’ the land says, ‘there comes a time when you have seen too much?’
Have been waiting for this jewel of a book. Congratulations!
Aanchal is steadfast in preserving and transmitting the oral and material legacy of partition while presenting these essential stories in a way that we can hold on to and reflect on in contemporary times. I’m just a wee bit extra excited to read #IntheLanguageofRemembering as my family’s story and particular tryst with destiny is included🙏🏼
REPOST @aanch_m
It’s publication day! In The Language of Remembering is finally out in the world, found wherever books are sold. Hugely indebted to Siddhesh Inamdar, Ananth Padmanabhan, David Godwin and DGA, Udayan Mitra, Shivendra Singh and my many, many interviewees, for making this book a reality! #repostios #repostw10
Listening on repeat. This woman’s voice opens the gates of heaven.
