Akshar

A Drape of Forgotten Scripts

Inspired by the Ink Poetics of Sangeeta Gupta
Serikos X Sangeeta Gupta 

A whisper of script. A murmur of memory.

This hand-painted silk organza saree draws deeply from the evocative ink works and lyrical abstraction of acclaimed poet-artist Sangeeta Gupta. Her visual language—where words melt into brushstrokes and time becomes textured—finds form here in cascading scripts, translucent textures, and haunting monochromes.

Akshar is a tribute to the fragility of paper and permanence of poetry. Rendered in gossamer silk organza, this saree floats like a manuscript left open to the wind—each fold a stanza, each pallu a poem. The palette speaks in tones of aged parchment, charcoal ink, and mossy emerald, as if soaked in stories.

This is not just a garment—it is wearable literature, woven from whispers, shadows, and soul.
