Bolly Tolly News, Thursday August 3, Kolkata: Students of INIFD Lindsay Street Campus organized their annual interior and fashion exhibition from Thursday August 3 to Saturday August 4, 10.30am to 4pm. The annual show was inaugurated by Tollywood celebrities Ms Gargi Roychowdhury, Mr Gaurab Chakraborty and Owner/Director Mr John Mantosh amidst much cheer from the talented students.
The theme for the interior designing
students was Kindergarten as a tribute to the first stage of human life when
children start learning about the world around them. Under the name “Kidd
Buzz”, there were four sections of kindergarten – dramatic area with graphic
art on walls and a castle for storyteller, honeycomb area, literacy and math
section and block and art section.
This was followed by “Kalavithi” – the
land of imagination and creativity. In the section, the students displayed
their handmade creations that included attractive paintings, modern art and
miniatures made from newspaper, broken glass, plastic bottles, wood etc.
Tollywood Actress Gargi Roychowdhury was
all praises for the Annual Exhibition at INIFD. “This exhibition brings back memories of my school days, the excitement in the eyes
of students, the creativity in their products and the warmth cannot be
expressed in words. My best wishes to all the students.”
Actor Gaurav Chakraborty said, “The
Annual Exhibition is so wonderfully done, the lovely textures that are used,
the kind of potential the students exhibit is just amazing and I hope they
achieve success by leaps and bounds.”
“We are very proud of our students.
They are exceptionally talented and like every year this batch too will achieve
great heights in the future.,” said Mr John Mantosh.
The students of fashion designing
worked on the theme of “Exploring our Roots” that went back to understanding
the native cultures and indigenous tribes. With globalization spreading its
tentacles far and wide, every individual is becoming only an echo of each other
leading to Acute Cultural Confidence Deficiency leading to frustration and
confusion about one’s own identity. The students intended to redefine
civilization through a bonding of the urban and the jungle culture and show
that civilization demands not only a progression towards a better identity but
also to hold the beauty of one’s own.
Some of the tribal societies that
inspired the students include Ladakhi (J & K), Samburu(Kenya),
Kazakh(Mongolia), Singpo(Assam), Huli(Papua New Guinea), Mustang(Nepal),
Tibetans(China), Goroka (Papua New Guinea), Rabari (Gujarat) and Gauchos
(Argentina).
INIFD Lindsay street campus students
are power houses of talent and enthusiasm, the students here are excited about
their annual exhibition. The textile students, Rownia and Dipika said, “Each of
the genre of fashion designing has its own inspiration, lengthy process and a
lovely process.”
The interior designing students had
the kindergarten themed set up for their exhibition. Sneha Tindal, interior
designing student said,“The experience was excellent, throughout the exhibition
we learnt team work, focused work patterns and proper practical exposure.”
The exhibition had budding talents
from both fashion and interior designing sections, exhibiting their designed
products. The students are all set to fly high and achieve their dreams.
