Jammu and Kashmir hosted a two-day carving exhibition at Art Emporium in Srinagar which provided a strong platform for young artists of the Valley to showcase their talents.

The show, organised under the 'Know Your Artisan' initiative by the Department of Handicrafts and Handloom, drew an enthusiastic crowd of visitors to witness the exquisite craftsmanship, reports ANI.

The highlight of the exhibition was the exceptional artwork by Aziz-ul-Rehman, a resident of Srinagar who has embarked on a distinctive path in the art worldcrafting jewellery items from animal bones. Rehman's bone crafting talent stood out amidst Kashmir's traditional focus on fine design elements such as embroidery, Kani weaving, and carpet weaving. His passion for "working with scrap bones and wood to create unique items" has resulted in an intriguing collection of jewellery, keychains, knives, and decorative pieces.

"I create various items using animal bones, such as jewellery, keychains, knives, and decorative pieces,"Aziz told Zubair Qureshi, shedding light on his artistic process and diverse creations, reports ANI.

Aziz shared that his interest in art dates back to his childhood. "I always had a penchant for creativity. During my spare time, I enjoyed making things, playing with tools, and tending to my garden. These hobbies nurtured my artistic inclinations," he said.
