Through a series of immersive workshops focused on upskilling, storytelling, and experimentation with materials and mediums, each artist has developed a distinct voice while retaining the soul of their heritage.

About 47 A:
47-A is a gallery for design. In the world of Baro Market, we trace the lines between craft, art and design and find them increasingly blurred; 47-A delves into all of these and presents shows that are deeply researched and brilliantly curated, through the lens of design. Our aim is to showcase fine design, to educate and inform, to debate and discuss and to shine a light on the finest craft, art and design that we discover. We are specially connected to the heritage village of Khotachi Wadi in Girgaum, Bombay that the gallery is housed in, and are deeply committed to conserving the community, and engaging meaningfully with its history, people and design.
