Jaipur Rugs x Gurjeet Singh Launch 'Dreamers' Collection
Jaipur Rugs and Gurjeet Singh Unveil 'Dreamers': A Radical New Collection Rooted in Rural Voices
Jaipur Rugs, in collaboration with acclaimed textile artist Gurjeet Singh, launches Dreamers—a genre-defying collection that transcends decorative design, offering bold, emotional narratives woven by India's rural artisans and Jaipur Jail inmates.
Blending hand-knotting traditions with raw storytelling, the collection touches on gender, caste, queerness, and generational trauma—amplifying the voices of artisans like Pinki, Boogli, and Gajanand as co-authors, not just craftspersons.
From the poignant 'I Want to Go Home' to the haunting 'Black Sun', each piece becomes a visual essay, crafted with over 600,000 knots and months of meticulous labor. The collection also features sculptural heads made from discarded fire-damaged rugs—symbolizing renewal, resilience, and environmental consciousness.
'This is not just craft—it's confession, memory, protest, and authorship,' says Rutvi Chaudhary, Director, Jaipur Rugs. 'Dreamers is handmade luxury redefined: ethical, emotional, and radically human.'
