Solar – wall mural

This ceramic mural is an amalgamation of forms and textures inspired by planetary bodies. The composition of the mural is indicative of planetary bodies in the universe and the details relate to their movement. The circular movements in this mural are disturbed by forms that have been inspired by the shadows created in a sun dial.

 

I was commissioned to create this mural for the Wellness Centre at Antara Senior Living, Dehradun. The concept, form and colour palette were all put together keeping the space and usage of the space in mind.

 

The mural extends into 3 spaces of varying sizes the largest being 6 x 4.5 meters.

The installation of the mural

The installation of a mural is always a delicate and tedious process. A good team of carpenters and technicians are at work here late into the night for the installation of this mural.
