Dear Friends
Greetings from Goa
We are proud to present to you our new Project
THE SALT PRINTS
387 km, 24 Days, 4 Artists
THE SALT PRINTS is a contemporary artists march with the aim to retrace the historical Dandi March the 387 km walk from Sabarmati to Dandi, which launched the history's greatest non-violent battle, the civil disobedience campaign, headed by the father of the nation, the great Mahatma Gandhi in 1930.
This Dandi March in 2011 by a group of 4 artists aims to visualize the historical geography by collecting and capturing photographs throughout the walk to develop a visual narrative of people's personal and collective memoirs about Gandhi and his philosophy.
The participating artists are, Ajit Bhadoriya, Edson Dias, Chaitanya Guttikar, and P. Madhavan who shall be equipped with the pinhole, medium format and large format cameras loaded with films. The march will start on the 6th of July from Sabarmati and will end at Dandi, Gujarat.
The four artist marchers have a commitment to teach 4 youth in the village where Gandhi rested for the day (List of villages). Four youth volunteers would be selected from the village and taught, by each of these marching artists, on the basic photography skills giving them an opportunity to visually represent their village and culture. This is a small step towards igniting youths imagination, creativity and self-expression through photography.
This march being initiated by Goa-CAP aims to culminate with a series of photo-exhibitions, multimedia presentations and a book. For more information about THE SALT PRINTS please visit our website saltprints (dot) org You can also reach us at +91 9730103604.
I invite all the Salt Print (photographic process) enthusiasts to support us by sending ONE SALT PRINT (digital image) to us through email at saltprints(at)gmail(dot)com or you can directly upload the image to our Facebook page The SALT Prints
We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in anticipation for considering this request.
Sincerely yours,
P. Madhavan
