DYEVE & JJOE
A student at the Bengaluru School Of Visual Arts, pursuing visual arts, specialising in painting.
It's been three years now at CKP and I consider myself a learning artist, born and brought up in
the rain and traffic of Bangalore.
I'm Jyothika,
I love Graffiti, painting, spray painting, sculpting and tufting. But most of all I love the dogs of our
city streets.
Stray animals have a special place in my heart and I've done my very best to take care of the
dogs in the neighbourhood. I've rescued about a few dogs over the years and with my license
from AWBI. I can feed strays without any hassle. My work on the loopholes is connected to what
I'm most passionate about and hope people love our UU (Urban Underdogs) as much as I do :p
ABOUT THE ART:
My art is a playful blend of the world around me and the rich imagination of my mind. Art is my
answer to bridge the two and make sense of where I stand in so large a society/universe.
To do so, one of my many mediums is photography; wherein I use it to document my fascinations
in my unique perspective, from dogs, and sunsets to the everyday lives of people around me.
Colour is essential to my perception and carries a lot of emotion. I use them carefully and create
forms that complement as well as contrast each other.
I'm hungry to learn new things and I love to adopt ideas and do it 'my way'.
One of my favourite projects is called "fix my melancholy"
ABOUT THE DESIGN OF THE LOOPHOLE:
The design of the loophole is a very dog-themed loophole, im interested in charity work for every
loophole people buy, a certain amount will go to the dog's rescue and shelter.
The name " POPDOG " comes after the pop colours with the drawings of urban underdogs.

Your biography?
My artistic journey started off as a product designer in university, where the creative side of things were a little more structured. Slowly but surely as an entrepreneur setting up my first brand/retail store LBB CYCLES delving into the multiple skills need to make it work, i picked up a paint brush and decided with my best friend that our space needed have art on the walls.
So of we went and started painting. It was then that i realised that art was more about flow and expression than the structure i was used to. A few months later i saw some really awesome graffiti next to my house, it was a calling or you could say something really clicked. From that moment I knew that life had new plan in store for me, and there began the journey of SEND.
A recent project you worked on?
Recently, I organized a graffiti workshop for school children through my startup, Visualeyes. It was
a fascinating experience to engage with young minds and introduce them to the world of graffiti.
A small paragraph about your personality?
Well.. i feel i embodie a captivating personality that combines creativity, charisma, and a laid-back demeanor. Sometimes I feel my relaxed vide creates a sense of ease and comfort, making it was to chill and connect with.
Your favourite project?
As a commercial graffiti artist / muralist my work is never the same, so i feel every project i work on is a new learning experience and a journey. But one of the projects that stand to me is a mural i did in Dubai for a indoor badminton complex. Definitely a stand out for me.

DYEVE & AASHITA
1. A brief explanation about your art.
My artistic journey revolves around exploring the unseen while maintaining a sense of familiarity. I
would describe my art as futuristic surrealism, inspired by the concept of existing in an alternate
reality within the vastness of space. When I create, my mind travels to these imaginative places. I
incorporate psychedelic and soul growth elements into my art, combining geometric shapes with
organic natural elements to create captivating doodle-like artworks.
Regarding the artwork created for "Loophole," it represents a small element from my psychedelic
universe. It features mushrooms that seem to gaze back at you as you gaze at them.

into a work of art. I firmly believe in striking a balance between passion and profession, as both
contribute to personal happiness. Having recently obtained a Master's degree from the Institute of
European Design in Milan, I grew up in Singapore and have worked in various cities across India.
Currently, I am freelancing and embarking on a startup venture with my partner called Visualeyes,
which focuses on art facilitation.

DYEVE & SHEFZ
I learnt it back when I was in school. A close friend of mine inspired me to revive this skill a year ago and has taught me new ways of doing it and working with my hands- creating new products everyday I’m just loving it all over again.
Biography is-
Born, raised & settled in Bangalore, I’m a happy homemaker who loves anything to do with cooking , gardening and craft which sparks so much joy into my life . It’s been a passion to create things in my own way. I have embroidered more than a dozen bed covers & table cloths with so many different types of stitches. I like to challenge myself once I have learnt a new skill and implement it in many ways.
My most recent project was to get into collaboration with Dyeve which was very exciting and challenging because I’d never used such thin yarn where I had to make a lace for the loops. Earlier I had only used wool which is much thicker and very easy to make items with.
My most favourite project was just when I had started crocheting. I went to Kerala for a getaway and here I came up with a combination to make a project of granny squares. I had to make around 50 of them and the joy of making them was immense. I managed to finish within a month , crocheted them all together, made some tassels and voila! I had a table runner for myself.

DYEVE & NAKUL
Concept note for artwork:
As a graphic designer, I go through hundreds of different images, texts in
various fonts and a combination of these images and text everyday. And
because it’s part of my job, I’m conscious of it. But everyone else around me
also go through this overwhelming overload of text and images on a daily basis
either consciously or subconsciously - through advertisements - TV, Internet,
Social Media, Billboards, Magazines, Newspapers. It’s everywhere similar to an
infestation.
I wanted the artwork to be both photography and illustration - as a result,
It consists of an illustration of a mutant centipede-like creature with eyes
coming out of its sides, set against a collage of photographs of advertisements,
billboards, torn movie posters, painted political campaigns and such that I have
been photographing for over a year.
About the artist:
I’m Nakul, a graphic designer and photographer based in Bengaluru. I was born
and raised in the city. I finished my bachelor’s in graphic design 3 years ago
and have been working as a graphic designer and freelance photographer ever
since. I’m into westerns, retro sci-fi and horror films, jazz, hardcore punk and
heavy metal - most of my freelance work involves creating graphics and
artwork for bands and musicians while also documenting the music scene in
Bengaluru. I also like to experiment with sounds and noise.
Most recent project:
All of my recent projects have been photography related as I have shifted my
focus toward photography and photographic processes. My most recent one
was a personal project where I made a photo book (different from a photo
album) documenting my grandmother and her house in Kochi
