PATNA: 'Srijani', a group of women artisans belonging to marginalized section of society of the state, is organizing a three-day exhibition-cum-sale of its summer collection at its office on Ashiana-Digha Road from Friday.

These women entrepreneurs would display designer products, handicrafts, personal wear, home decor, office stationeries made of eco-friendly materials and using traditional mediums of embroideries of Bihar's rich traditions.

" It is a novel enterprise by women from the economically and socially weaker section of society, who find an expression of their lives, dreams, desires, aspirations and world views in their hand-embroidered 'Stree Katha' (narratives) which explores socio-cultural norms and their identity in traditional, yet contemporary forms," said Veena Upadhyay, director, Srijani. "Srijani is not just a platform for the women from the backyards of Bihar, it is also an expression of their voice, immense talent and creative ability," she said.
