Gajagamini
beeing in the Mumbai metropolis
big traffic wild traffic
seeing some animals
wild but also domestic
and no elephants.

the street looks different
every second
the elephant goes its way
faithful and undeviatingly
and this is known as
GAJAGAMINI.


Mural

12 steps of the elephant walkcycle
inspired by Eadweard Muybridge
leaving one single frame behind
for the neighbourhood.

Animation
raw video and audio footage
roughly composed
hints, relations, rhythms
for sensitive perception
to observe the progressive
development or deconstruction
of motion and treading water.
