The Wall Project : Mumbai (www.thewallproject.com)

Dear All,

A bit about us & the new initiative.

ABOUT
The Wall Project, a humble project that started out with a few  
enthusiastic people, is growing to be a bigger, better project. It was  
an initiative to add visual elements of colour, form and texture to a  
space, to make the area more alive and generate a feeling among people  
who pass by it daily.

This process allows one to be more observant about the spaces we use  
and move within and how we can use various art forms in the public  
sphere to generate an interest in the minds of our daily human lives.  
The Wall Project in its own way tries to start a conversation, with no  
political or religious attachments.

THE GREAT WALL OF MUMBAI

The Wall Project  along with the Municipal Corporation of Mumbai is  
initiating painting sessions on the Tulsi Pipe Road, stretching from  
Mahim to Dadar running along the Western Railway line in Mumbai.  The  
first phase starts on the 15th -16th August 2009,  0800 HRS onwards.


CANVAS
- look for an arrow indicating the start point on the Walls of Tulsi  
Pipe Road, (closer to Mahim(West) Railway station) And we could begin  
painting in that direction.
-  it would be nice to come prepared with a thought about what you  
would like to paint and how much wall space you will require.



HOW TO PARTICIPATE
- its open to all. show up on 15th/16th August, 08:00am - 08:00pm and  
paint your style.
- if you are apprehensive about painting all by yourself then you  
could assist people who are painting.
- you could come as a group (friends, family etc) with hopefully a  
constructive idea and paint it.


PLEASE KEEP IN MIND
* no adverts, no religious writings on the wall, hopefully no  
political slogans, no foul language.

* there is a limited amount of paint supplies on location, so early  
birds...

* being a weekend/national holiday some paint/hardware shops may be  
shut or close shop early, so you would want to check on what you  
require in advance.

** clean up around you once your wall is complete  J
