Marking the halfway point of our stay in Mumbai and journey into the complex mechanics of Dharavi, we embarked on our first exhibition to showcase some of the initial excavations and to solicit reactions from those that passed by.
Artefacting Public Art + Research Practice
Communities & Barrels
Dec 2010; Artefacting exhibition @ Kala Ghoda Gallery, Mumbai, India
A street exhibition of works in progress was presented at Mumbai’s famed Kala Ghoda gallery on Dec 20th, 2010.
Painting the ACORN Shed
Our first public painting; a new appearance for the office of our local partner Acorn Foundation.
Industrial Buzz
At first sight, Dharavi’s industrial 13th Compound seems anything but orderly or efficient. However, as the days pass and you begin to uncover the layers of confusion, the industrial mayhem dissolves and a bustling nexus of recycling facilities, clothing manufacturers, leather goods operations and a variety of bakeries emerge.
Signs of Social Wealth
An injured goat gives us the opportunity to witness the community coming together during a time of need.
