Every letter is written or read in a special nook of our homes. It is a sacred space like the ones we make for our library. Home is after all where we truly exist as ourselves, A definition of our identity, our values, and our tradition is reflected here. Art plays a hand in cultivating this. Levitating as a static object, art speaks more about us than we can imagine. Here in the third issue, we would like to reflect on Indian Folk art and its transformative capacity which brings the modern, the fantastical, and the traditional together in our homes.

I would like to end this letter with an introduction. This time I’d like to introduce myself to you all. My mother named me- Avali. She is a poet and that in itself is enough for me to explain about myself. It isn’t easy to write about oneself. But I think I can summarise myself into three defining categories- Art, Literature, and Cinema. I may be an artist to some, a film and poetry enthusiast to a few, but to you all, I am a writer- and in some sense a romantic escapist. Love for all things miniature brought me to Bridge Bharat and now I have the best job- to research and curate. I am surrounded by my books right now, and all I can say writing about art is tough yet I don’t think I want to be anywhere else.
With hopes of opening dialogues and bringing beauty and magic of art into your day I would like to end my letter to you, my dear reader, with love and compassion. And I believe that is our ethos at Bridge Bharat.
I will await your response.
Love.
Avali
