Shanane Davis lives in Jodhpur, India at Jog Niwas where she has followed her passion and dedication to educate, revive, conserve and promote the historic fine and decorative arts of India along with their intellectual thought and historic patronage systems. Her expertise is in multiple Indian fine and decorative arts, their art history, processes and connoisseurship.

Over the last decade, Shanane Davis has been involved in reviving 46 different high-level Indian art mediums to their historic level. Some of these mediums had become extinct and on some, the quality was quite low as over the last decades the culture of patronage, the supply of high-quality raw materials, design
techniques and aesthetic understanding had broken down. Utilizing her extensive knowledge and expertise in these subjects her home Jog Niwas was created as an education centre in the format of an interior salon under the label of GajendraShanane to showcase important South Asian material, culture, and its intellectual thought processes. Students, scholars, art collectors and those that wish to learn more on these mediums; Indian material cultures and the art of connoisseurship come to Jog Niwas to be taught by her to further their interest and knowledge.

Shanane Davis considers herself fortunate and privileged to be brought up in a tradition of material culture education and connoisseurship that was passed down for 13 generations in her family that focused on the vital importance of material culture to create a healthy and prosperous society. Each generation has
been vigorously taught from an early age, she was 6 when her training began. She comes from an Irish background that had strong ties to South Asia where 4 generations ago her great grandfather started to collect South Asian art and document the processes of the various proprietary art and intellectual mediums.

She discovered that she is a natural teacher, which she adores, with a gift of educating by using storytelling that brings the listener into the world that is being taught. She has found that a non-scholar approach to educating in complex thoughts and material culture has been a fundamental key. She loves to share her knowledge, to re-educate on the present mainstream thought on what is believed to be material culture, why generational material culture is vital to an individual and society and to help protect and promote awareness for its survival.
