  • Pinal Maniar is a contemporary textile artist whose work explores cultural identity, memory, and place through natural materials and traditional craft processes.

    Drawing inspiration from natural landscapes, she combines natural dyeing, embroidery, and weaving to reimagine ancient techniques within a contemporary context.

    Her tactile works bridge personal memory with collective histories, evoking themes of belonging, transformation, and environmental connection. Through her textile-based pieces and installations, Pinal invites viewers to slow down and reflect on the stories embedded within fibre—honouring ancestral knowledge while engaging with the present moment.


  • “This is Where I Live, almost becomes a manifesto of embodied existence.”

    “Neural networks in the mind rendered in gold foil and white-on-white embroidery on organza. All of my experiences, memories, movements, and thoughts are contained in this space.”

    “It is a statement of embodied consciousness- gorunding, literally "This is my home, my dwelling place". Universal yet deeply personal.”
