Some of our most exciting work is still taking shape.
At Eka, we are working with institutions, families and companies across India on new archives, exhibitions and heritage projects. Many of them are not ready to share yet, but they will be soon.
Check back here to see what we’re building next, or get in touch if you’d like to work with us on a project of your own.
Five Ways of Cloth
81 Indian Textiles from the Sarita Handa Archive
Five Ways of Cloth is an exhibition of 81 historic Indian textiles from the Sarita Handa Archive, looking at how everyday people lived with, used and interacted with fabric. The textiles are arranged in five ways of seeing cloth:
- Cloth that was worn: daily garments and attire.
- Cloth kept at home: domestic furnishings and household textiles.
- Cloth offered in faith: sacred and ritual fabrics used in worship.
- Cloth carried in ceremony: textiles for life milestones, festivals and community events.
- Cloth traded across seas: fabrics that carried Indian craft to markets around the world.
Dates: 30 January to 9 February 2027
