VATAVARAN Human connections get lively most of the times due to the environment around. The light of the evening, light of the city, shops and street food hawkers become performers in the lanes of my home city. Shaping the character and nature of the town. Making it vibrant and cozy, active and relaxing, noisy and calming at the same time. Two metro cities in different countries embracing different cultures yet have the same warmth keeping me close to people. Warmth of not feeling lonely, warmth of always giving options to go somewhere to enjoy ourselves, also two cities that have very strong culture of always moving and never sleeping. This has sensitized me and made me experience the intangible closeness. The Effect Sitting on the street map of my homeland Mumbai, the vibrant city is an abstraction of the chic illuminated facades of New York. Immortalizing the most lively moment of the day, the evenings. Walking rapidly with my loved ones, both family and friends down the streets of Mumbai and New york, experiencing different moods, cusines and lights penetrating from the reflecting tall glass facades glowing up the atmosphere around. The movement and speed is illustrated by the play of projected lights. The vibrancy of Mumbai is mirrored in the effect by colours kaleidoscope of colors.
