TRASH,MONSOONS,WOMEN IN THE SLUMS IN MUMBAI

  • What interests me about the pages I read,
  • What I will remember most about the pages,
  • What  surprises me about the pages.
  • What visuals do I see in the pages.



  • The constant problems with the position of collecting and sorting and selling the trash..I never ever thought of trash this way.ARTS & CULTURE

    These Magical ‘Landscapes’ Made Of Plastic Bags Will Take Your Breath Away.

That contradiction anchors an unusual “landscape” series by London-based photographer Vilde J. Rolfsen. Using light and colored cardboard backgrounds, Rolfsen creates “a landscape within the plastic bag,” as she puts it on her site. In doing so, she makes use out of a material whose stated purpose — as Berrier asserted — is questionable. 04/28/2014 11:57 am ET | Updated Apr 29, 2014,The Huffington Post

  • Monsoon rains which stay for months...and the damage it causes and then it stops as suddenly as it started .
“I remember my childhood days when the water used to enter our house and our parents has to throw all of it out. I used to enjoy because I felt that my house sails like a boat,” says Chandrababu, a Bengaluru-based artist.

“I paint during monsoon because the season reminds me of my childhood days and our duties and responsibilities which made the family bond grow stronger,” he adds.

  • The Women and their plight in the slums as most were married off as young as 2 years old and most have to remain i the hut till their husbands return fro their day,often drunk and not caring about the wife.

  • The one legged woman with crutches,the most beautiful and "everything"girl,the trash and the rats and the rain falling hard.

  • An artist from Kolkata, Ananda grew up observing hand rickshaw manufacturers near his house and he tries to showcase their daily life struggles through his art.  

    Sharing his thoughts, he says, “During monsoons, the condition of Kolkata roads becomes pathetic. This effects transportation to a large extent and these rickshaw pullers continue working for their livelihood.”
