Masaba Gupta debuts Ghee-Shakkar collection at Art Basel Miami, celebrating Indian art and culture

Masaba Gupta has always embraced her Indian roots while keeping her vision firmly set on the global stage. Renowned for bringing India’s boldest, most expressive fashion to international audiences, she now marks a significant milestone in her global journey. Masaba presented her work at the prestigious Art from the Eye of India event at the Miami Art week, a celebrated convergence of art, culture, and heritage.

From black-and-white motifs to vibrant hot pink: The story behind Ghee-Shakkar

Audiences will experience a specially curated showcase of 20 exclusive pieces, presented alongside the evocative poetry of Rupi Kaur. This year also brings an enriching parallel moment: experiencing Art Basel while hosting an event during Miami Design Week that celebrate Indian art, fashion, dance, and design. The event highlighted and supported the Indian artists exhibiting this year. Masaba and her team welcomed artist Rajiv Menon, who is showcasing his work at Art Basel, along with Art Basel Asia representative Angelle Le Siyang, as guest speakers.

“India has been my biggest source of inspiration and I carry India on my sleeve, now more than ever as we make our debut at Art Basel, Miami. I am not just representing India, but unleashing it,” says Masaba Gupta, founder and chief design officer. She will be presenting a 20-piece capsule collection comprising luxury clothing and fine jewellery for the very first time at Art Basel, Miami.

The collection, titled Ghee-Shakkar (clarified butter and sugar, a phrase symbolising auspicious beginnings and abundance), is a love letter to India and beyond.

“The narrative unfolds in black and white as well as in bursts of colour, finally culminating into a magnificent hot pink gulal. You will find motifs steeped in culture on the garments, drawing from cosmic patterns, ancient cityscapes, and the textures of an India that are both timeless and ever-evolving,” explains Masaba.

Through this showcase and her presence during Miami Design Week, Masaba aims to build meaningful global connections with art lovers and niche tastemakers, celebrating the richness of Indian art, culture, and heritage on one of the world’s most influential platforms.
