INDIA UNREQUITED

This website is the attempt of artists to conserve and showcase the intense engagement of a creative group lead by our subcontinents first registered company of scenographers ,working for a year to put together the architecture and design for a pavilion of India/ Bharat at the forthcoming Expo 2025 in Osaka.

The groups trans-disciplinary efforts, after receiving clearance from the Expo and Japanese authorities were however, cut short in August 2024 by uninitiated decision makers who had no understanding of cultural and national depiction or presentation of the new India that has emerged from its historical past. Had the concerned Authorities in India allowed the pavilion-as originally conceived and tendered to happen-a very special story of our country would have unfolded for major public review at an international Forum.

The visual content you are about to see, were developed in good faith (new credits and acknowledged continue to be added each day), into a presentation with considerable data composed into four engaging scrolls to be accessed one after another, weaving a layered narrative .

This experience will soon be re-designed to incorporate your feedback.

India unrequited intends to ultimately develop an unprecedented pavilion in virtual space ...reflecting more democratic aspirations of a Bharat in dynamic flux.
