Mobile Home by lochanupadhyay from india

Modern society appears to be characterised by exchange rather than subsistence as it was in the past, and this has led us to this transactional phase, from a known place to an unknown or local to an urban.
What interests me is this aesthetics of the everyday (food, clothing, sounds, music, signs, words, holidays, letters, house hold items,) that become signs; to track the experiences and transformations.
The project Mobile Home started with recreating these visuals of mobility through making mobile structures in iron and then weaving them using the local techniques of my native place. The ropes used for this were made from recycling waste plastic, and hence automatically become a part of the work.
