Architectural Digest India (Cultural Craft Edition) — Suniti Sharma, Contemporary Craft Editor
"In an era dominated by synthetic wall prints and fast decor, Craftchirp’s tactile mud-and-cow-dung canvases evoke the ancient earthen architecture of Western India. Each stroke of rice paste is unhurried, spiritual, and thoroughly timeless."
The Indian Express (Arts & Living) — Vikram Joshi, Senior Cultural Correspondent
"Agarwal’s studio in Maharashtra feels less like an art factory and more like an herbal apothecary. Trays of sun-cured cow-dung paste, acacia gum crystals, and raw terracotta pigment fill the space where tribal mythology finds disciplined form."
Deccan Herald Heritage Review — Ananya Sen, Folk Lore Scholar
"Craftchirp bridges the delicate boundary between tribal ritual art and international gallery standards. By perfecting a multi-stage curing process, Agarwal ensures these organic mud foundations travel safely to collectors worldwide."
Global Indigenous Crafts Symposium (Geneva) — Curatorial Monograph
"Keynote exhibition catalog inclusion documenting the carbon-negative attributes and ceremonial significance of natural cow-dung mud preparation in Mithila and Warli communities."
