ART-CITY (MUMBAI), Studio X Mumbai
In my works I concentrated more on the built space. The disorder of the city is a surface character that is coupled with the internal logic, which makes everything at place. Similar juxtaposition can be drawn from the built spaces around us, which sprawls in every possible manner. The cities are rapidly transforming into concrete jungle, where the life is constantly constrained into smaller cubes.
The lack of space is an acute problem in every city. Space has been a major concern, all through the history of urban planning and designing. Urban planners and designers persistently try to come up with innovative solutions to meet the day-to-day requirements and management for human built-space. In my installation, which is construction of space, I want to reflect on the condition of living in over-populated metro like Mumbai. The level of human intervention into the natural surrounding, reconstructing a second layer of nature for living and sustaining life. The feeling of confinement and claustrophobia dealing with the urban setup and space making tools to overcome the physic understanding of breathing space and space for life.
