Design Carnival Installations:
3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th of November 2009
Design Carnival: Installations based on Sustainability
- Installations in the form of mobils, stair graphics, wall graphics, tessellations, painted surfaces with light and shadow play, objects of everyday life - taking the viewer through larger than life portrayals into the worlds of:
- The Elements of Nature
- The Evolution of Life
- The Myth of Creation
- The Tree of Life
Design Carnival: Sculpture on Recycling
- The Kabaadi in the Backyard: A sculpture of commanding height made out of junked material. Including throwaways in the form of computer peripherals, broken furniture, wires and cables, or worse, the unseemly sight of construction ‘rubbles’. It is our tribute to the ‘Kabaadi’, the ubiquitous waste collector for being a clearing house of waste that we think nothing about while junking. And which could just as easily have choked our surroundings if not regularly collected for reuse by the ‘kabaadi’.
Design Carnival: Calligraphic Scrolls
- The Birth of the Letter: calligraphic scrolls in larger than life-sized portrayal of scripts painted on canvas on the spot by calligraphers to show preserved and vanishing scripts in Arabic, Devnagari, Modi, and Roman.
Design Carnival: Graffiti
- The Arc of Infinity: Graffiti as floor graphics – interactively and spontaneously done with natural dyes on newspaper by students and designers - to express one’s protest or happiness, depending on whether one sees the world as Black (carbon) or as Green (ecological). Carried out along the length of 1600mts to become the world’s longest graffiti.
