ABOUT SHIKHA RAJPUT

Passionate and results-oriented Textile Designer with a proven track record of creating innovative designs that merge creativity with functionality. With experience across exhibitions, fashion collaborations, and freelance design projects, I specialize in developing captivating concepts, leveraging advanced techniques, and delivering high-quality designs that resonate with global audiences. I am proficient in a range of creative and technical skills, including experimental techniques, passementerie weaving, intricate repeat patterns, digital printing, as well as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and MS Office. Additionally, I possess strong soft skills in creativity, innovation, collaboration, problem-solving, and attention to detail. My academic experience includes projects like \"The Zenith of Her\" where I explored diverse styles and techniques for textile design, and \"Soboye Reimagined - The Exhibition Show\" where I led the space design team and collaborated on various aspects of the exhibition. I also have professional experience working as a freelance Textile Designer at Khinkhwab Design Studio in Singapore (Jun 2022 – Jan 2023). Here, I designed their Winter Collection 2022 inspired by Ajrakh block printing, collaborating closely with the design team and artisans to bring the collection to life. My extracurricular activities showcase my initiative and creativity. For example, I conceptualized and executed the props for the Opening Ceremony of the 29th Intramural Sports Competition at Banasthali University. I am confident that my skills and experience make me a valuable asset to any design team. I am eager to take on a challenging opportunity and contribute to the creation of impactful and trend-setting textile designs. I am currently seeking work where I can practice my skills and talents as well as learn in a professional environment and expand my capabilities.
