Lastly, the AD x JSW Prize for Emerging Artisan was awarded to Chennai-based Reha Salvi, a self-taught woodturner and founder of the craft studio Lakkadghoom. Her work interrogates the profound connection between maker and material, as Lakkadghoom marries contemporary design with India’s rich woodturning heritage. Its artisanship is rooted in traditional crafts like kitchenware by Gujarat’s Wadha Kolis and lacquered toys from Karnataka’s Channapatna.
