I never thought heritage would become such an important part of my journey. My background was always in design and art — making illustrations, game characters, and modern visuals. History and heritage felt far away, something you only see in museums or textbooks.

While working here, I started noticing the creativity hidden in the past. The patterns at Ramappa Temple, the sculptures at Alampur, and the motifs at Phanigiri were not just decoration — they were powerful designs created centuries ago. As an artist, this inspired me. The ideas of balance, rhythm, and storytelling that we use now were already mastered long before us.

This made me more curious. I began visiting heritage sites on my own, sketching pillars, studying carvings, and thinking about how these old motifs could inspire my own designs and game art.
