Where the Thread Turned Inward is an extraordinary tapestry exhibition by Dutch artist Wilna Simpelaar, presented by WEFT Foundation in collaboration with the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

​

Through finely woven textile works handcrafted in India and The Netherlands, the exhibition explores the meditative act of weaving where craft, memory, and emotion intertwine. Simpelaar’s practice merges European Gobelin tapestry traditions with Indian materiality and light, creating artworks that invite stillness and reflection.

​

This exhibition also marks the 40th anniversary of the Kanoria Centre for Arts, celebrating its legacy as a nurturing ground for artistic and cross-cultural exchange.
