The Pigment Trail
Artist Debra Luker fell in love with India. She found it to be her artistic inspiration.
Through her sketchbooks, photography, collections, designs and drawings Debra has created her own unique and intimate portrait of India, seen through the eyes of an artist. Crumbling, colourful and time-worn textures became her canvas; layer by layer, they reveal an extraordinary visual collage, a blend of intriguing and magical creative power. Her observations transport you to the beauty and richness of India’s everyday life.
Hardback: 208 full-colour visual spreads, each made by Debra, that allow you to breathe in the colour palettes and celebrate India’s handmade, creative spirit. An inspiring, and enchanting visual experience.
