Curatorial Conversation
Perspective
Be the change you wish to see in the World: #hastagfuture is not just a social movement to change the system but an inclusive revolution on an individual level. We decided to travel across nations in South East Asia from Kolkata to Brunei, to explore, to learn, to know and to archive the grassroots knowledge on Climate challenges and how the community uses art and culture to mitigate the changes. We have decided to commute only through the public transport system - Bus, Train, shared vehicles, etc. or walk to go around and meet the communities. We strongly feel that it is the single greatest way to reduce one’s personal carbon footprint. By deciding to take public transport we are not only traveling in an economical way but also intend to reduce the carbon footprint. In addition, traveling through public transport systems allows us to interact with the community and locals.
