Short story to a huge sculpture

On the first day of college, I got to know that we are having a reading session of the book Hamzanama, really a different kind of story for me. It was very fascinating to experience a new story world and how that one story brought a whole idea of making a big whirlpool! Firstly I am the kind of person who requires more time to fit in with new people but doesn't how somehow I got mixed up and be friends, working together as if we were having a mission to accomplish. That experience of making something new during my early days of college made me have that confidence that, yes we can create things that all seem impossible if we come together and work

together. Firstly I struggled in understanding the

concept, what is expected, what is going on...


Everything was new to me, promising that I

started to catch up with more ideas and created good drawings using charcoal. For the first time ever I used charcoal ever. All black hands, our clothes and everything It was fun!


Then our team's next goal was to make a huge

sculpture of a whirlpool. We ponder over it over

the day and somehow got the plan. We worked in the wood workshop and got practical

knowledge of handling wood equipment and

machines. It was feeling as if we are creating

something very special and big!


The best experience from this First ever Project was

bringing the materials required for the whirlpool. We had chosen acrylic mirror sheets which were only available in Jogeshwari. How we got the sensitive material all the way from Jogeshwari.


Carrying those big sheets of acrylic through the rush of Mumbai locals was a different

kind of unforgettable

experience!


But I felt very productive throughout the whole


the project, laughing, getting injured, and planning gave a feeling of unity and brought that joy that we were missing for the last 2 years because of

the lockdown.


But again due to a new variant, our sessions became online so our project got a break.

It's still incomplete. A lot of work is to be done. I and my group are eagerly waiting for our sessions to start again offline so that we can restart our work and accomplish our masterpiece!
