Tanisha Zaman
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF DESIGN
I am Tanisha Zaman, a designer guided by intuition and nature. With a background in Lifestyle Accessory Design, my practice explores the emotional and ecological dimensions of materials and objects. I foster a deep curiosity for the intersection of art, culture, and design. I'm particularly drawn to alternative materials and slow, sustainable processes that question mainstream lifestyle trends and patterns of consumption. My work is rooted in engagement with indigenous knowledge systems and craft-based communities, especially in Northeastern India, where I continue to research material culture and collaborate with tribal artisans. Through my own practice, I blend storytelling, design thinking, and cultural sensitivity, reimagining how objects can carry meaning and memory.
