A Tale on/by/about the Adayar river

The project aims to reimagine the relationship a river has with the city it flows through and the nature of public spaces provided. Pitting itself against the idea of a riverfront and concrete embankments, the intervention was imagined to be situated in key locations, propogating movement across the river on boat and concentrating the ecology stretched out along the banks, at these chosen spots. Shaped by the process of a fisherman narrating the tale of the 'project' to his niece who is about to embark on this experience, the idea was to bring out a possible scenario on site.
