Space has a great power to influence our thought, nourish our philosophy, which we felt again during this short duration of Seven days. Again we experienced and understood nature newly, chanted it’s eternal beauty and tried to connect our spirit through some creative activities.This time the piece of land was ‘Charkhole’ , a tiny hamlet, Twenty-Seven kilometer away from Kalimgpong town.  From the altitude of 5500 feet, we were experiencing the wonderful hillscape, where mighty hills ware asserting the superiority. We were mesmerized by the offerings of nature. May be every one of us were appreciating it’s different entities and values , were recalling different experience and philosophies, observing different characteristics and were engaging with the space differently but somewhere, all of those individual engagements were concluding a collective thought, were pointing towards same metaphysical concepts and discourses, which has been reflected in our artworks also. Almost all of we were interested in the different providing of the space, where, undoubtedly nature influenced us the most. With the direct usage of motif and material from nature, many of us were tried to incorporate visuals from religious & cultural practices, geographical characteristics and it’s changing aspects.  Although in terms of execution these works are having a variety but serving for the same salutation of nature, which could be connect by the key thread called ‘nature’. - SIDDHARTHA SHIL
