Mumbai Masti - The Times of India Kala Ghoda Arts Festival, Mumbai - India

This giant ferris - wheel installation is put together by Krsna Mehta along with two students from JJ School of Arts - Laxmi Narwekar & Prashant Keluskar.

This installation is inspired by Krsna Mehta & Bachi Karkaria's animated book on Mumbai, Mumbai Masti.

As Krsna Mehta puts it, If the world is your playground, then Mumbai is certainly a giant Ferris-Wheel. And one that carried everything around with it, as it goes around its axis doing its daily business. This installation is a playful take on the city thats truly cosmopolitan, in the way its celebrates diversity - of class caste colour, religion profession and everything else.

Its a city that revels in its chaos - that's why 'Mumbai Masti'.
