Greens to Greys

"A journey. A travel.

In the beginning, we were small, and all was green.
We adapted to green.
We moved on and green moved to grey.
We now know grey, create grey.
Green adapts to grey. Grey adapts to us. The memories of green linger in grey.

Move with us, as we dance through green, grey, its memories.....life.
Presenting.
A transition. An adaptation.

VI Semester Exhibition Design students with Hrishikesh Pawar and the Dance Club - an amalgamation of space, sound, light and dance to create a unique performance."


The project was based on the theme of 'Adaptation'; greens being the tender young years of an individual who adapts and grows in his or her environment and greys being the ageing and growing years where you tend to make your space characterise you and adapt to you, concrete spaces.

The First Stage We covered the Aquarium(a glass box like space) with white paper(two walls, pillar and floor) and place painted white props within. The idea was that of a 3Dand 2D white canvas and people were invited to express themselves in any which way possible. We observed outlets of emotion, graffiti, conceptual sketches, emotive art, people dancing on paint and creating forms.
The amphitheatre.
The Fountain.
The Foyer. "The performance moved from the Amphitheatre, through the Fountain and to the Foyer. The concept took off from the interactive installation in the Aquarium on Thursday, from where we chose to look at the idea of changing spaces from natural to manmade; Green to Grey. Adaptation. The performance involved the same choreography that sought to bring out the elements of each the spaces , the difference the space would make to the performance, as well as to see how the audience would react to the performers moving amongst them and around them."
