Hey Milann - Good luck with the project. Ladakh is a beautiful part of India, and I really hope you reach your goal here. Keep at it!
hi milann, we manage a venue in Bombay and would be happy to host an exhibition for your project, either pre event [to assist in your for fund raising] or post event [to increase impact]. all the best. jitin
Best of luck!
Capt Jack Sparrow, happy to have you on board! Apart from exhibiting our photographs, art work and film, we've just got a 68 year old shadow puppet master to help with our live installations at venues across the country. You'll get an update letting you take a peek at his work in a bit. Venues abroad depend on how much support we get for this project. So the pledges define the venues for now!
In the meantime, we plan to take our findings on the effects of climate change via our film to Copenhagen in time for the UN Conference for Climate Change later this year in November.
hey milann, you've got quite an interesting project going here. a q though, where will the installations [that you mention in your video clip] be put up? all the best.
Hey Dmitry,
Thank you for your note,can't really figure what the problem could be, did you have such problems as well? Thank you wanting to pledge :) hope it works out the next time you try.
I've been following your project's progress for some time now. I guess the bell ringing at the end of Andrei Rublev seems to be one of the few scenes I go back to when nothing seems to be going right, makes me remember why artists must fight to keep art alive, keep others art alive :). A salute to Andrei Tarkovsky.
Hey! Good luck with your project. I tried to pledge $20 but it didn't work. I will try later and promise to make the "Yak Hair" level pledge!
