A series of interviews I did for WomensWeb. It features thoughts and works of women around the world who are crafting their business by hand. The first interview was with the lovely Karen Barbe, a textile designer from Chile, who weaves, embroiders and screen prints home accessories. http://www.womensweb.in/articles/karen-barbe-textile-design/. The second was with Yokoo, who knits and sews and has a beautiful way of living. http://www.womensweb.in/articles/handmade-design-yokoo-gibraan/ The third was with Natalie Stopka who loves marrying textile techniques in book binding - http://www.womensweb.in/articles/handmade-womennatalie-stopka/Pages

Lovely new work , refreshing! Off late I have met 2 people who have moved from advtg to painting full time (Mohan from Lintas, Ajai from ogilvy) and this is the 3rd instance whr I see someone take to potent designs – tho I dont know Lathesh. Great re-inventions, ALL 3:)

wow. i love the work. my favourite is the first one here.
Hi Gautam,
Lol…. its not about being quiet! The only one language i am good at is Malayalam..
so i was a nice guy all the time at Ogilvy. Your conclusion is a great compliment for me..
Praveen macha,
Its not W+K asked me to do! W+K SIDE is, something they worked last year for young designers.
yea, i am doing more on this series..
Vinod lal. Yess sir, The same Latheeshmon from Ogilvee and malayalee!
Yea i wish to do like you said..
Latheesh has always been a “different” artist. No wonder W+K asked him to work on this. Amazing stuff, macha! Waiting to see lots more….
Very quiet chap was Lateesah.
Looks like he’s trying to come to terms with his commie past and his boozy present.
His style remains unique. Wish I had kept those caricatures he used to doodle.
i’d love to see the second one painted all over India:)
ps: is this the same lateesh mon from ogilvee and malayalee?
