I have done my graduation with humanities. Beauty always inspires me and
gives skies to my creativity. I joined Pearl Academy for my post graduation because designing was the best way to express myself. I comes from a businees background.My Father is a businessman and mother is home-maker.
Why did you choose this topic
As a person i am very close to nature. During childhood I used to gaze lots of butterfly who were regular wanderers of my garden, with the passage of time I was growing up with a hint that those wanderers have been lost their way. Butterflies were coming lesser every year. Then a thought had started haunting me..Are they dying? Is there a possibility that their body is not capable enough to deal with environmental changes? After some reserch and going through the facts and figures I found that they were extincting. In many places in the world the number of butterflies is dropping rapidly. Habitats have been destroyed on a massive scale. Factories, highways, and houses have taken over most of the land on which butterflies used to live. They live in danger of being poisoned. In many places people use pesticides to kill harmful insects which also kill these delicate creatures. In addition, patterns of climate and weather are shifting unpredictably in response to pollution. Their fragility makes them quick to react to change so their struggle to survive is a serious warning about our environment. I wanted to spread the word and make people aware that if we lose butterflies we'll lose a lot. Dedicating my final year project is a small effort by me to these mesmerizing butterflies.
Pearl helped me out a lot to grow as a socio-responsible designer. I owe my gratitude to my design mentor Mr. Nandan ghiya for his patience, motivation, enthusiasm, and immense knowledge. He has been very kind and patient, whilst suggesting to me the outlines of this project, and correcting my doubts. I have been fortunate to have an mentor who gave me the freedom to explore on my own, and at the same time the guidance to recover when my steps faltered. He taught me how to question thoughts and express ideas. He helped me overcome many crisis situations. Besides my mentor, I am equally grateful to my course leader Mr. Kunal dutta for their constant support & guidence. I would thank sincerely the rest of my mentors and teachers who all helped me, for I have completed my project effectively and moreover, on time. I acknowledge entire staff of pearl for providing me a very educated atmosphere who laid seeds of enthusiasism and passion in my pursuit of knowledge.
What is the social contribution / impact of your work
I believe it will create a impact on society as people will become more sensitive towards the nature which will finally help them to contribute their bit in maintaining our ecosystem.In my Project I have displayed the joy of being beautiful and free is turning into a Dying Butterfly, and it is not her fault. This blame belongs to us, the people of this planet Earth. Many more people now would get aware by the dying butterfly project that we all are responsible for killing these butterflies intentionally or in ignorance. Butterflies are one of the most threatened groups of wildlife. Worldwide, there are over 170 species of butterflies that are considered to be endangered and 50 species are in danger of extinction. Little is known about the status of hundreds more species. This project would raise awareness of the drastic decline in butterflies and create widespread acceptance that sincere steps needs to be taken to reverse the decline of several of our most threatened butterfly species.
Why is this a life changing idea
Butterflies are equally worthy of conservation in their own right like tigers. Conserving butterflies will improve our whole environment for wildlife and enrich the lives of people now and in future. This project has made me a better human being and gave me an opportunity to spread a message to our society that "designers are not those who use animals for their fur and skin but designs a better world by saving any dying art & craft either it is humanly or god-made". This idea will allow these divine beauties to live with us and flutter their charisma on our planet forever.
Who will benefit most from this idea
We all and our environment will be benefitted by this project as it inspires us to save our natural heritage. Saving butterflies from extinction is important because they are highly sensitive indicators of the healthy environment and thriving ecosystems. A decline in butterflies would also have a knock-on effect on other species and plants. Being a beautiful and major component of our wildlife, they play crucial roles in the food chain, as predators and prey as well as being pollinators of plants. My project would aware people to create a beautiful world full of wonderful butterflies.
