ABOUT ADITI SARAOGI

Abandoning a career in commercial communication for a more soul- fulfilling occupation Aditi Saraogi was exposed to clay through a studio potter in Kolkata. Thereafter, wanting more guidance, she trained under Mansimran Singh in Andretta, Himachal Pradesh and later honed my skills under Ray Meeker and Deborah Smith of Golden Bridge Pottery in Puducherry. Still wanting to learn more, Aditi became the artist-in-residence with Isabelle Roux in Beaucens, France and in the Yueji Kiln International Ceramic Art Centre in Dehua, China and later with Sandra Black, Fremantle, Australia.

Aditi enjoys life and all that it has to offer. So she takes every opportunity to explore different places and situations, various cultures, to walk along the road less travelled and thus to learn in the process, pausing sometimes to smell the flowers or to watch the light cast by the evening sun.

She has been part of numerous shows and residencies, nationally and internationally. Some of the residencies include Tata Steel Art Residency in Jamshedpur and Art Ichol Ceramic Residency in Ichol. Her works are part of private collectors in India and globally. Aditi is also one of the pioneers behind AFSA- Fired Arts in Kolkata. This trust promotes all forms of fired arts such as ceramics, glass and metal and organizes markets and art shows along with other events. She has also curated exhibitions and residencies for Gallery Sanskriti, Kolkata, Art Ichol Maihar and Delhi Blue Pottery Trust, New Delhi.
