Imagine this. You feel like you want to do something unique on your day off. Instead of spending your time at the movies or a bar, you decide to visit an art gallery. But you don’t get into your car to visit one, all you do is step outside and stare across at the facade, in front, and have a look around. Take a stroll down your street, and take in all the stunning and breath-taking murals on the walls. That’s the goal of St+Art India. Well, that’s the hyperbolic version of it, but it goes along the same lines.
A team of five conceptualised and brought St+Art India to life, with a mutual love for art. Akshat Nauriyal is a film-maker and visual artist, who captured early street art in India, and documents upcoming sub-cultures in the country. Hanif Kureshi is an artist who was heavily a part of the street art culture, and primarily works with a lot of brands. Thanish Thomas handles project-related concerns and functioning, due to his experience in logistics and events. Giulia Ambrogi, another artist who has taken part in street art festivals and is well-versed with the art scene and artists, acts as the curator. Arjun Bahl takes care of the overall functioning, working with all the departments, to make sure things are in order. The five of them went from being friends to colleagues, putting in hours and resources, to make St+Art a full-blown reality than just leaving it as a passion project.
