Bandish

The structure

Lacing at the front, the back, and the sides. Suspension straps over the shoulders. Bandish means a binding, and a melody held together. Both readings are in the piece.

Bandish is held in three directions. Lacing at the front, lacing at the back, lacing at the sides, and suspension straps that carry the weight from the shoulders. Every line is drawn taut by hand. Nothing here is decoration. Bandish means a binding, or a melody held together. The lacing is both at once.
