Cast(e) Away

I am happy to present my archviz entry "Cast(e) Away" for OneRendering Challenge 2020 which got shortlisted in Top 100 Finalists conducted by Architizer and Fiverr.

The picture’s intention is to highlight the increasing caste inequity and bigotry that possess a lethal threat to Indian unity. Watching the dreadful stories of ostracised and honour killed inter-caste relationships has put many people into fear, agony and depression. Has the humanity failed to exist?

The scene portrays the current social misery where a loving inter-strata couple is stranded inside a holy shrine chiseled in the rocks, masking their faces out of horror and desolation to face the brutal society. The dull gloomy weather reflects the impelling societal burdens they are anxious about. Is there a way to overcome?

Yes, change starts with us and we dont require laws to make us realise that. That is how  we change our mindsets and nurture coherent social living into our future generations. ‘Be the change you wish to see in the world‘- Mahatma Gandhi.
