Urban Block Printer
Blocks , Blocks & blocks every where. A house full of them, with printing beds, colours & fabrics. Meet Shyamala Rao, a passionate urban block printer, who narrates stories on blocks collected from all over India.
While talking to her, about her impressive collection of hand carved wooden blocks, she shared how she designed & developed some interesting blocks with the artisans and explained how difficult it was with changing times to find authentic craftsmanship nowadays…
Her enthusiasm is not limited to block printing….but many antique collectibles from India as well.
We’d like to invite you for a hands on workshop & who knows what’s in store for you at the workshop.
The lovely photographs are clicked by Sneha Nikam who learns, explores & experiments at matsya.

About Me
Hi, I am Neha - an artist, a potter and a crafts' lover. My travails with arts and crafts began by dabbling with paint and colour since my teens Studying Fine Arts at Sir J.J School of Arts , Mumbai and then Studio pottery at Golden Bridge Pottery, Pondicherry intensified my love for the subject and honed my skills as well. I embarked on my journey by working extensively in Gujarat and Maharshtra. My own contributions and learnings from others helped me gain myriad experiences and sharpen a multiple set of skills in the sector. Now based in Mumbai, I continue with the passion to express my creativity through arts and crafts.... through 'Matsya'. This blog is about Matsya and our journey has begun...........
