WANDERLUST


 

WANDERLUST – A Journey Through Imagination and Exploration


Step into a world of Wanderlust with FARO and Pete Hawkins, to embark on a captivating journey filled with curiosity, discovery, and the thrill of exploration.

 Allow yourself to be transported to Rajasthan and Kashmir with FARO where the beauty of block print and embroidery comes alive with intricacy, vibrancy and colour. Block print and embroidery are a testament to India's rich artistic heritage and the creativity of its artisans. They not only celebrate the country's cultural diversity but also serve as a medium for self-expression and storytelling. Through these crafts, artisans continue to create timeless pieces of art that are cherished in our homes.

FARO has used these to create a wide range of products, including clothing, home furnishings, accessories, and more. Whether it's a vibrant table adorned with block prints or an intricately embroidered bedspread, these art forms add a touch of beauty and cultural richness to everyday life.

 Pete Hawkins’ Postage Stamps conjure up images of travel and far-away lands. They are like doorways to another world. This group of paintings is exploring the idea of being one side of a door and being tempted to pass through into the other side. They are like snapshots of a story that is in the middle of being told. Each work of art becomes a portal to another world, evoking a sense of awe and inspiring your own wanderlust.
