PESCEPORT - Poonthura

Pesceport is my interpretation of the Dropbox project, proposed for Poonthura, Trivandrum Kerala. Poonthura is a fishermen colony in the suburbs of Trivandrum. There are many issues facing this community such as natural disasters, loss of beach soil, etc. However, what they take most to heart is when outsiders look down upon them. Pesceport is simply an effort to initiate conversation between the community people and outsiders. By highlighting the local knowledge of fish and uplifting it to appeal to the increasing crowd of Pescetarians around the world, Pesceport invites you to interact over a bowl of food. View: https://youtu.be/RJxIerJw7JA
