TURMERIC Magazine: Issue 01

TURMERIC is an independent magazine exploring the creative pulse of the Indian subcontinent and its diaspora. Through in-depth conversations, stories, and visuals, it uncovers how artists, designers, and makers are shaping contemporary culture.

With a tone that’s curious, warm, and bold, TURMERIC celebrates the intersections of art, design, and identity—bringing together a growing ecosystem of creators, builders, and readers who believe in storytelling through print.

About Issue 01

The 160-page debut issue of TURMERIC traverses with stories unfolding across Ahmedabad, Baroda, Chandigarh, Goa, and Toronto. Through seven conversations, one essay, one poem, and a set of illustrations, it captures how contemporary Indian creatives are making, building, and dreaming within their own ecosystems.

Inside the first issue, you’ll find:

  • Anikesa Dhing, an artist based in Baroda, on nostalgia, abstraction, and materiality in art.

  • Prachi Dhase, an illustrator based in Toronto, on diasporic identity and storytelling through mixed media.
  • Mackinlay Barreto, founder of The Local Beat, on mindful tourism, community, and creative entrepreneurship in Goa.

  • Vivitsa Kohli, founder of Vivikoh Studio, on building a design practice rooted in play and authenticity.

  • Dharini Patel, founder of Mud and Moon, on craft, process, and material-led design.

  • Chirag Patel, on his relationship with his 40-year-old home in Baroda, Gujarat.

  • Deetishaa Koradia, on speculative architecture and reimagining Ahmedabad in 2075 through her project DroneHive.

  • Parth Rahatekar’s poem, Home is something bodily, and Saniya Patel’s essay, The Fallen Mogra, exploring nostalgia, loss, and longing.

  • Illustrations by Kartika Bagodi, Candy People, a visual meditation on colour, chaos, and joy.
