Evidence Room: Chamba ke Gharelu Nuskhe aur Muft ki Salah
Khoj International Artists’ Association invites you to ‘Gharelu Nuskhe aur muft ki salah’, a day long intervention led by artists Aastha Chauhan and Ita Mehrotra and brings to conversation their projects based in Uttarakhand as the part of the Evidence Room Exhibition. Evidence Room stages a selection of projects from Negotiating Routes: Ecologies of the Byways, a major public art initiative supported by Khoj, which invited practitioners to investigate shifting local ecologies at sites across India over a period of five years.

11:30 am – 12:30 pm
Discussion: Reimagining local schools for the children of Jardhar village.
Led by Henvalvani team (Rajendra Negi, Station Director, and Aarti Bisht, Programme Officer)
Envisioned by the Henvalvani team, Jeevanshala aims to embrace a more holistic and contextual pedagogy by teaching the students local farming practices, ecology, traditional music, culture along with the regular curriculum. Discussion focuses on the finer details and relevance of this institution.
4:30-5:30 pm
Illustration workshop lead by Ita Mehrotra and Henvalvani team (Rajendra Negi and Aarti Bisht)
The omission of images of any plants on display is deliberate; in order to draw focus to its medicinal qualities rather than its aesthetic. Ita’s workshop aims to create/provide the omitted graphics using Rajendra and Aarti’s descriptions as an impetus.

बातचीत: जड़धार गांव के बच्चो के लिए एक अभिनव पाठशाला पर पुनर्विचार
हेवलवाणी टीम (राजेंद्र नेगी, स्टेशन निदेशक और आरती बिष्ट, कार्यक्रम अधिकारी) के नेतृत्व में
आजकल हेंवलवणी व परिरक्षण ग्रुप जड़धार गांव के लौंजी नमक तोक मे जीवनशाला स्वयं सहायता समूह के साथ मिलकर कुछ अभिनव प्रयास करने जा रही है जिसमे अंग्रेजी से दूर खेती किसनी, संस्कार, कर्मशीलता, निष्ठां, संगीत, संस्कृति, व जड़ो से जोड़ने वाली शिक्षणशाला शिरू करने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं
4:30-5:30 pm
चित्रण कार्यशाला: सुनंदिता मेहरोत्रा और हेंवलवानी टीम (राजेंद्र नेगी, स्टेशन निदेशक और आरती बिष्ट, कार्यक्रम अधिकारी) के नेतृत्व में
इन पौधों का मुख्य आकर्षण इनकी खूबसूरती नहीं बल्कि औषधिक गुनवंत है। राजेंद्र और आरती के वर्णन पर आधारित यह वर्कशॉप चित्र बनाने की कोशिश है।
