Studio 'J Art

Studio 'J Art is up on the first floor here at A-61 in Hauz Khaz. It’s a bit of a climb up the stairs, but we like the light we get once we’re inside. The space is filled with projects in different stages of being finished. It’s not the neatest place you’ll ever see, but it’s where we do all our thinking and making. Hauz Khaz is a busy area, so being slightly tucked away on the first floor gives us a little bit of peace to actually get things done. We spend a lot of our time just messing around with materials and seeing what works. There’s always some paint or dust somewhere, which is just part of the job really. We don’t have a big staff, just a few of us who care about what we’re putting out. Sometimes we lose track of time when we’re working on something tricky. It’s not really a nine-to-five kind of setup, more like we work until the job feels right. We don’t go in for fancy talk or trying to sound more important than we are. We just enjoy the process of creating things and having a place of our own to do it in. If you walk past the building, you might not even notice us at first, but we’re up there, keeping busy and trying to make something decent every day.
