Gold leafing : Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2013, Cycle Chalao City Bachao by Rajesh nakar - INDIA

My INSTALLATION at Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2013 








Life is a leveler and world as we all know it, is ROUND. "As you sow, so shall you reap" has been said and heard thousands of times. Yet, humans continue to do and act in a way that more than once could hamper its healthy existence.
Invention of wheel is considered man’s finest discovery till date. Wheels just didn't help him move, it kept him moving. However, there is no limitation to a man’s need and his urge for speed. So, the world moved from discovering a basic bi-cycle to scooters, cars and other modern luxuries that could help his need for speed!
“There is enough in this world for everybody’s need, but not for everybody’s greed” said Mahatma Gandhi. We have been warned and repeatedly told to save natural resources like Gold, Oil, Silver, Copper etc…. but what about the environment we live in?
Time has come to adapt to more practical measures than resort to ones that we find it difficult to follow. ‘Cycle Chalao City Bachao’ should be one such weekly campaign that has to be followed and implemented by individuals.
Professionals, riding cycles should not be looked down upon. Every individual should do their best to reduce pollution and help a greater cause. The first citizen of the city should initiate such campaigns for the betterment of the society. Perhaps, now is the right time when petrol and diesel prices are soaring high!
Health benefits of cycling are widely acknowledged. During cycling; most of the body's muscles are activated. Cycling tightens up the muscular system, making it stronger and able to function efficiently.
The last best time to 'Ride the Change” was 20 years ago; the next best is TODAY!

Packaging design - JO DIKHTA HAI WOH BIKTA HAI









Dear friends and students here few of my packaging design work which I did for few of my Indian and International Client. While designing a package for any product, you have to concentrate on few things like:
*The packaging is literally the product identity.
*Packaging design has the primary goal to attract customers’ attention.
For this purpose, package designs cannot simply inform the customers, but also provoke feelings and communicate emotions. An effective packaging looks attractive, impresses with its creativity and is just nice to have on the shelf.
*Concentrate more on formulas like keep it simple and straight, Focus on typography, Branding and Positioning, Think Green, Hold the Consumer’s Attention, Consider it an Investment, Protect your product
Last but not the list, would like to quote a saying in Hindi language
JO DIKHTA HAI WOH BIKTA HAI which literally in English means, 'that which is seen is sold'...

If you ask me if I'll leave you? "MY ANSWER IS NO"













It was a routine day. I was doing my work. Just then I received an SMS on my international number from my Indian friend Vijay solanki.

Itwas a pleasant surprise as I don't receive any SMSes on my international number from anywhere!

The hindi message read:
Kagaz ki kasti thi, pani ka kinara tha,
khelne ki masti, dil aawara tha,
kaha aa gaye ye samazdari ke daldal me,
woh nanha bachpan hi kitna pyara tha!
This message triggered a thought and the result is this picture. Every body surely misses the innocent childhood years. The care-free days when even sailing a paper boat was thrilling. The paper boat was just not a toy, but a friend who taught us the emotions of life. The highs and lows, the attachment, every single element added to the experience. But as life grew upon us, the toy friend is forgotten!
Haathon Mein Thi Ek Kaagaz Ki Naav
Kaisi Thi Dosti Kaisa Tha Pyaar
Paani Ki Lehron Par Thi Savar
Rakhti Dosti Tab Bhi Barkarar...
Aagey Badhneka Chalta Raha Safar
Hum Bhi Chaltey Rahey Raahon Mein Magar
Beh Gaye Rishton Ke Wo Bhaav
Jaane Kahan Kho Gayi Meri Kaagaz Ki Naav...
Therefore, I want to tell you my friends, family and students who have always been my friends....
If you ask me if I'll leave you,
My answer is No!!!


I am more than fortunate to have had so many wonderful friends. They don't only inspire me but mold my thoughts and encourage me to pursue challenging tasks. I owe my success to friends for their wishes as much as I owe it to God's blessings. God leaves you alone on this planet to live, survive and touch lives, but friend, stays with you lives with you make your lives cherish-able.

Thank you Friends!
