British sari design competition winners : British Saree Landscape

message_saree

 

Pamela Rana, whose parents came from the Punjab in the 1970s, has created a British Sari Landscape which reflects the era in which she grew up in the UK – suitcases, old television sets and planes. The colours are the blue/grey of the British landscape, with the occasional splash of the orange and green of the Indian flag. Her sari is bordered with CCTV cameras and a fictional landscape of terraces and temples, mosques and tower blocks.
