Space and Materiality (Week 9)

After the 8th week submission, we started with a new project ‘Project 2.’ We discussed some interfaces, how a body interacts with another body like hugging and shaking hands. These are some of the examples that sir told us and then we have to explore this field and have to think out of the box. We usually interact with many surfaces while playing, dancing and in a day to day life. We also interact with one another during this time. So how we interact with one another is like a bond or link between us. So this project is not for oneself but for you and another person. We combined with one another and decided some field and explored their interactions. I chose Hindu rituals, and my partner took sports and athletics. So we came up with some interesting interactions like
1) hand interaction during marriage ritual (Kanya Daan).
2) interaction between head and hand during ‘Sindoor Rasm.’
3) interaction between foot and hand while taking the blessing.
4) hand to hand interaction during the ring ceremony.
These are some interaction which I decided while exploring. I think interaction also link some emotions between two persons while Kanya Daan’ the feeling of togetherness between bride and groom. During ‘Sindoor Rasm’ it’s the commitment to fulfilling all the promises of ‘7 Phera.’ The emotion of love, blessing, respect, and care while taking the blessing. The emotion of new starting during the ring ceremony. These are the interactions of the body with the interaction of emotion.
