The CAAS crew re-imagined KHOJ, Khirkee and the surrounding areas of Delhi as a spaceship. After visitors enter the airlock, they enter a visual metaphor of a spaceship. They are invited to shift their perspectives, through collages that collide the realities of living in extremes of space with the realities of living in the extremes of dense uber cities. Expert Interview footage further feeds the opportunities in juxtaposing these living scenarios and how they can learn and inform each other. CAAS is delighted to be joined by Delhi Artist – Rohini Devasher whose work of video footage positions the changing shades of blue of the sky, and the fragility of green, alongside CAAS scientific prose.
