TRANSIENT TANGLES
The use of Salutogenesis in Healthcare Designing alone & the standardization of Installation Arts only as a form of Art piece, to be portrayed a certain way & limiting it to art museums & galleries, is a pretty confined thought process & calculated functional design. The art of blending a Healthcare Design Concept & Art Structures, with a ‘carved niche’ audience for Hospitality Designing is what my design desires to achieve.
- Redefining Interior Spaces as Curative Art Experiences.
- Redefining Interior Spaces as Curative Art Experiences.
The beauty & strength of efficiently designed spaces that helps in coping with stress, induces well-being & generates emotions is observed in Salutogenic Designing i.e., The design induces a stress factor with a coping factor through building structures as a healing element. Art Installation & Designing has always been just displays to stall around with Senses involved in most cases. There is always a deeply narrowed down abstraction to the Extravaganza achieved. There has always been a particularly chosen target audience to this.
‘Transient Tangles’ aims to achieve an interior space with Salutogenic (wellness-oriented) Designing with an Artistic Touch achieved through Installation Art (Essence of Padmini Chettur) that strives to achieve Sensory & Brain-Altering Experience in each room of this retreat. Every space in the Artist’s Retreat is treated in specific ways, custom-focused on.
NARRATIVE
The body is either a wonderous miracle to flow with & into or a physical geometric limitation of confinement. You either sync with the flow or sink into it. So, where would it start? In the heart, in the soul, in the body, in the spirit, in the intellect, in your emotions…well, everyone’s got their way of relating & realizing. For Padmini, my inspiration, it started with self-doubt.
Ah! Every artist’s worst paroxysmal of agony moment. With constant struggle to relate to societal views, creating a necessity to cut off all confinements & the breezy thought of letting go, it begins.
NO CONFINEMENTS. MORE COMMUNICATION. FLEXIBLE COMMUTATION.
Figured in the head, frustrated in the skin. Traveling through the chaos & commotion as the mind looks for a place of benign SOLUTION & STABILITY. The process becomes divinity within & throughout. The bliss, as one rests the feet gently on the floor & the arms slide into the empty space, letting it all in, through the spine & into the body, a gentle feel of gut. THE GROWING GUT, that makes her look for depth, purpose & beauty in the UNUSUAL & UNFATHOMABLE. Trapped from within, there swoops in the guiding spirit, the Senora that sets the path to the essence of her metanoia. Chandralekha, her guru.
Observing, Learning, Flowing & Expressing the self, through dance, she realizes the ecstasy from within. Shaping throughout the process, defining space, time, body & the plane, pouring her passion into dance, she creates art. PURE & DIVINE ART.
A Zeta-lady of minimalistic, simple & subtle rawness of being, expressing herself through every inch of skin & through every limb’s flow……
PADMINI CHETTUR, a panacea-tic journey.
