First an important event in the Indian Independence struggle was noted
that is the Quit India Movement. Then site was chosen keeping in mind
how it had relevance to Independence. Augutus Kranti Maidan was
where Gandhi ji started the Quit India movement so it had a huge
impact on the freedom struggle

Then the installation was designed keeping in mind the representation

of people's struggle. Basic structure of raised clenched fists surrounded
by chains and shackles was envisioned. Then the material was decided
keeping in mind concept of Sarvodaya

MATERIA
Mainly waste and recyclable materials have been used to represent the
L
philosophy of Mahatama Gandhi. He stated, "There is enough for
everybody's need and not for anybody's greed". Thus reusing and
recycling of material has been used in our installation.
