Desierto de sal en Rann Utsav Kutch. Guyarat. India

Objetivos

Producción de proto-piezas a escala 1:40 de un espacio comunitario

místico destinado a la reflexión en el desierto del sal Rann Utsav

Kutch en Guyarat, India.

Las condiciones paisajísticas fluctuantes del lugar y la

peculiaridad de su producción salinera, obligan a reflexionar y

alejarse de tipologías urbanas como teatro, auditorio o sala de

congresos. Una de las partes del ejercicio será elaborar un

programa híbrido con otra/s actividad/es a explorar por el alumno.



Las piezas podrán plantearse como elemento icónico o como

agrupaciones de piezas. En ambos casos su presencia debe

convertirse en un punto de referencia en el paisaje. Se trabajará

por lo tanto con dos envolventes, exterior e interior, y el espacio

intermedio entre ambas. La investigación volumétrica en maqueta

explorará la materialización de nuevos espacios “desconocidos”.

Además de la volumetría se trabajará con las emociones a través

del color, el esmaltado, el brillo, los reflejos, la luz, los

nudos, la estructura, vistas, etc … dotando a la pieza en un acto

ceremonial al recorrerlo.

Durante el viaje se convivirá con artesanos que trabajan varias

artes y técnicas de las regiones de Gujarat y Madhya Pradesh .

Estas son: #01_Textiles y telares, #02_Bamboo y embarcaciones de

madera, #03_Cerámica y vasijas, #04_Pintura y color, #05_Piedra y

grabado, #06_Papel y corte.

La construcción de proto-piezas se plantea por medio de dos

técnicas y materiales el barro/cerámica y el tallo bambú: vasijas

y cestas. En el primer caso se construye desde la masa, mientras

que el segundo se conforma con la suma de unidades.

Tribal Them………….. Tribal You……….

India has always been famous for its culture, tradition, ancient

architecture. Above all this less know aspect is tribal

traditional handicraft. Various part of county is home for varied

type of tribal communities. Each community embrace their culture,

learning and art through handicraft. Handicraft includes, textile

sewing, clay / pottery, bamboo art, paintings, etc.

However, few textile and fabric handicrafts have got good

recognition at national and international level. But quite large

variety of handicraft has been limited to villages and districts.

nature / variety of tribal and traditional handicrafts and propose

interventions and new working / design models, which can improve

their accessibility / visibility at national and international

market. Participants will have hand-on experience working and

living with these local communities and extent two way knowledge

artists have developed their techniques and designs, in order to

reinterpret them and come with new ideas that can be adequate to

new global system and new contemporary uses.

with new design systems. In will include, how these traditional

arts can be refined with contemporary ideas and new products and

uses.
