Junoon‘s Arts at Play, exposes young minds to the delight, richness, rigour, freedom and sense of possibilitythe arts bring with them. Junoon showcases a variety of art forms and offers many interactions with arts professionals so that students may imbibe the wonder and diversity of India’s cultural fabric and therefore guides students towards understanding their own responses and expressing themselves creatively and without inhibition.
When children experience learning through a taste of something magical and tangible, they relish the knowledge and cherish its unforgettable impact for a lifetime. This is the kind of learning Junoon offers – touching and transforming children’s lives through the arts.

Sanjna Kapoor, Co – Founder – Junoon, who overlooks the curation is a firm believer about the positive outcome of this program

Do you remember the last time you felt the excitement of opening an envelope, tracing the words kept inside with your fingers, secretly hoping that the sender’s scent still lingers on the paper? It is this special feeling is what Harkat Studios, a film production company, a co-working space and an alternative performance space in Versova is trying to bring back to life with their new project, Love in Letters.

A series created for the production house’s YouTube channel called Choti si Harkat it is an answer to this generation’s attention span. Letters can tell a whole world in a few pages.  These videos will reintroduce us to the beauty of taking it slow, leaning back and enjoying something as meaningful as a letter.

His paintings draw out the best of the perspectives as the colours shine bright against the evening light- The luminosity combined with the transparency of the weather – culls a beautiful cityscape that one can lose oneself into…indefinitely!

Mahesh studied the technicalities of fine art as a sheer passion to fuel his natural bent for capturing his imagery on canvas. Adept at all mediums, he enjoys playing with chiaroscuro as much as he dabbles with everyday subjects, symbolically trying to portray a simple truth- there is joy in every little thing!

With buildings flirting with bylanes and pedestrian traffic, painting vivid scenes of ordinary folks and everyday humdrum of city living, the artist unveils his collection aptly and simply christened ‘Pratibimbh’.

The Mumbai monsoon holds a special place as the artist creates washes and adeptly applies the oil medium with the expertise of watercolor techniques. The romanticism and inspiration that accompanies the rain is well depicted.

Pratibimbh- Capturing the soul of Mumbai

“The ways and subways of life,” says Mahesh have not only led him to be a passionate artist but have literally constituted the ethos of his musings on canvas. The strength of his brush dipped in oil paint confidently etches out silhouettes of vehicular traffic, bridges, carts, flower sellers, the iconic Dabbawalas of Mumbai, capturing the ethos of the buzzing metropolis.
