Shibani has been a resident of Tagore's land for the past 15 years. The cultural and artistic heritage of the place finds a special place in Shibani's heart, who has been involved in intricately Kantha stitching on a wide variety of items for almost a decade now. It is a passion that drives Shibani's association to the art form, which happens to be the indigenous treasure of Birbhum district.
