Flying oil cans

Jugaad by Sanjeev Shankar

The installation is called Jugaad, a hindi term for the process of making something with the resources you have to hand. 692 discarded oil cans were crafted together by the local community of Rajokri to form this meeting space. The waste material was transformed into object of desire and value. The sculpture floats gracefully during the day giving shade to the inhabitants and reveals its sparkling splendour with the arrival of night.
