of Sioveh Illustration, Nandita Dhindsa. She was born in India
in 1984, and studied Solar Power Engineering in Budapest,
Hungary before turning to illustration and design. She has lived

Working internationally, she creates motifs, portraits and
typographical pieces in watercolor and ink, as well as digitally.

art. Her work has been reviewed variously by online curators

For this issue, Nandita has created chapter illustrations based
on traditional Ukrainian dress, the key pieces of which are
headdresses made of flowers for women, and embroidered
white shirts for men.
