Welcome to Yashi Designs!
I’m Bharti Trivedi, the artist behind every piece of fiber art you see here. Since 2013, I have been proud to call Northern California my home. My journey as a fiber artist is deeply rooted in a passion for exploring the endless possibilities of natural materials like jute, cotton, etc. I founded Yashi Designs as an outlet for my creativity, where each artwork is a unique expression of the beauty, simplicity, and depth that can be found in everyday life!

How it all started
Yashi Designs began with a simple yet profound idea: to create meaningful art that bridges sustainability, craftsmanship, and emotion. Inspired by the intricate patterns of nature and the timeless appeal of traditional techniques, our founder, Bharti Trivedi, embarked on a journey to reimagine fiber art.

ARTIST STATEMENT
I am driven by a passion for exploring shapes and the transformative potential of materials like cotton, jute, wire and wood which I use to create sculptural forms and installations. Through innovative interpretations of traditional macrame and textile techniques, I transform them into unique expressions of art that transcend form and function. Jute, an enduring material with roots tracing back to the Indus valley civilization around the 3rd millennium BC, holds great significance in my work, offering versatility for knotting processes and holding the desired shape of my sculptures with needed firmness. Each creation is a manifestation of my dedication to capturing the essence of events, feelings, and emotions through the intricate interplay of form and texture.
My sculptures are built upon time-intensive repetitive methods, where I adapt traditional textile techniques into a modern approach. The interaction between materials and form is fundamental to my artistic vision. While I maintain a level of control over the manipulation, I allow the materials to respond naturally to the process.
My aesthetic journey is a reflection of my personal evolution, rooted in a strong appreciation for minimalism and the allure of understated beauty and elegance. Inspired by themes drawn from nature's intricate patterns and the depth of human emotions, my art seeks to capture the essence of complexity within simpler forms. It serves as a celebration of texture, highlighting the organic and natural shapes abundant in the world around us. My art symbolizes expansion as I transcend personal boundaries through creating spatially impactful artworks, ranging from petite sculptures to life-size installations. By exploring a myriad of shapes to create innovative designs, I challenge conventional perceptions and inspire new possibilities. With each creation I strive to push the boundaries of creativity, inviting viewers to engage with the deeper layers of human experience.
