Where Art Remembers Its Roots
Culture is the tradition we inherit, something we nurture, shape, and keep alive through thought and practice.
DharoharForever is a living archive of traditional Indian art, textiles, and the stories woven through them. It’s a space for slow looking, mindful making, and rediscovering heritage through
hand-painted motifs, batik work, and the quiet beauty of folk traditions.
About Us
DharoharForever is a celebration of India’s living art traditions. Founded by artist Rashi Agarwal, we preserve and share the beauty of hand-painted textiles, batik work, and folk art.
Through workshops, custom creations, and mindful storytelling, we keep heritage alive—one brushstroke at a time.
Workshops & Offerings
Learning from the
lines of tradition
From intimate art sessions to customized heritage pieces, DharoharForever invites you to engage with culture in motion. Workshops explore storytelling through folk forms and symbolism, while bespoke artworks bring personal narratives to life. Every exchange is an act of shared learning—rooted in history, made for today.
Art & Craft
Stories Painted by
Hand & Heart
Each artwork and textile carries its own lineage—a folk form reinterpreted, a goddess retold, a memory preserved. Through techniques like batik and hand-painting, Rashi’s pieces celebrate patience, imperfection, and meaning. They aren’t designed for display alone; they’re created to hold stories.
Why DharoharForever
DharoharForever isn’t built on trends—it’s built on trust, time, and thought. Here, research meets intuition, and heritage becomes lived art.
Every post, painting, and textile is part of a larger purpose, because beauty lasts longer when it’s understood.
What Shapes
DharoharForever
HANDS
We believe in the maker’s touch—the patience, rhythm, and quiet skill that shape each piece. Through our hands, stories find form, and craft becomes a language of care.
HEART
We create with feeling as our guide. Every work begins with empathy and intention, unfolding slowly into forms that hold stillness, connection, and a sense of belonging.
HERITAGE
We draw from what came before us. Every motif and narrative here, at DharoharForever, is a way to listen again — to reinterpret memory with respect and keep tradition meaningfully alive.
