About our Artist: "My name is Fida Hussain, and I was born and raised in the beautiful valley of Srinagar, Kashmir. My father is a papier mache craftsman - a family tradition that has been handed down from generation to generation. I grew up watching my father create beautiful things. When I left school I decided to join my father full time. We occasionally make intricate pieces, but when the customers are not ready to pay, we have to go with the flow. I really want to promote the beauty of this papier mache craft. When my father was alone, the way to sell his products was through local stores in Srinagar but since I've joined him, we have also started participating in government sponsored exhibitions, and we also have started supplying government emporiums and cottage industries. My two elder brothers are also actively working with my father. I feel so proud to be able to share the same platform with my father. He is such a great artist!"
