> WHEN?
June 1, 2016 – July 31, 2016
> WHERE?
An ambitious 60 day train and bus journey in India. We shall start at Delhi and drive down south along 15 different destinations or more.
> WHY?
The Traditional architecture of India is deep and diverse. It is a response to thousands of years of evolution but still in tune with the local cycles of nature and life. The knowledge and wisdom of these communities is trapped in vestiges of vernacular architecture or in patterns of daily life. We do not comprehend this rich heritage through schools or books, not through words or language, but through the touch of the hand. The best way to learn architecture is through working hands. So this journey´s main purpose is to make a honest attempt to touch the lives of people. That is why Sparsh is the Sanskrit word for touch.
