Art in Transit is a collaboration between Srishti Institute of Art , Design and Technology and BMRCL

Artist : Aroushka Jinelle D’Mello The painting is from a vast and meticulously generated colour palette for Metro Station, Aroushka Jinelle D’mello brings a selection of these colours into the station through a large scale installation of modular columns suspended along the stairs, with the colours shifting and changing as one moves across it. The piece forges a subtle and ephemeral link between the Metro Station and its community by reflecting the diversity of the local visual palette.

The first impressions of were influenced by its predominantly dull and dusty colour palette, and idea revolved around bringing colour into the Metro Station to contrast its stark atmosphere. Peenya' s colour palette truly was, with colourfully painted Vaastu houses to the women’s sari to the bright blue vegetable carts. The final set of colours were consolidated and edited from the thirty palettes compiled from the photographs.
