The workshop that took place at Khoj,Delhi, was a part of an international project dealing with the individual in a changin in urban environment. Other workshops will be held in Marseilles, France and Helsinki, Finland.
The inhabitants of Khirki village neighbourhood first learned some basic video shooting and sound recording skills. After that they directed their own autoportraits, deciding the way they wanted to be shown.Then they filmed a place that has changed in their neighbourhood. They talked about, and recorded the memories and feelings linked to that place. In the final work,- a video installation - the portraits of people and places filmed in different cities will be connected. New final portraits will be composed superposing the images of a person and the place he feels attached to.
