My name is Parvindar Singh
I am a multifaceted artist ! A musician | a dancer | an activist | an experimental instrument maker , who loves travelling , exploring the world and spreading indie culture!
Being a maker I consciously work on all the projects that come my way, be it a small stool or an entire structure!
Choosing this lifestyle had made me mindful towards my surroundings it is also an opportunity to learn and explore new things in new places and with various communities!
Over the years, I have conducted many woodworking and instrument making workshops trying to pass on the knowledge and possibilities this lifestyle provides!
I have also worked on several architecture projects like building a Community Space, Makers Space, Slim House, pent house, public musical wall and many more. I've also explored the path of furniture making, considering aesthetics and ergonomics in design.
One of my recent on going project is the 'Dharavi 13 step project' where I'm teaching wood working and instrument making to the kids living in Dharavi spreading an awareness of making culture and teaching them basic vocational skills which might help them in their future endeavours!
Maker lifestyle taught me a very basic rule,  if you have skills you won’t be afraid of your survival. l am cherishing this bond of me and my making time. It is helping me grow and evolve into a better and happier human being.
