This clock at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport was created by renowned Dutch designer Maarten Baas. It features video of a man in a work uniform painstakingly painting the time minute by minute.

Baas was inspired by “the many faceless men who sweep, clean and work at an airport in their blue overalls.”

Why is the ‘Banksy of Bangladesh’ Asking Someone Called Subodh to Run Away? · Global Voices

"“Subodh, please run away.”
I don't know who created this graffiti, maybe (we) will never know.
Those who have grown up seeing Banksy's graffiti would surely appreciate the Subodh series.
My love to the creator, whoever that may be."

"This Subodh is representative of Bangladesh at the present time. He is the representative of good sense."

Imagine Fest 2017 : A Walk Through – Tracing Art in Public

An open-air art exhibition by 17 young artists broke the stereotypical gallery approach towards the Artworks. Curated by Megha Madaan, this exhibit of paintings, sculptures, prints, and ceramics called out a lot of crowd at the Imagine Fest. Getting the works out of a four-walled room and displaying them in the open area was the catch point. “It was difficult to convince the artist, but once they did, they went home happy”, said the curator.

Revisiting Reva Diaries : Empathy and Citizenship – Tracing Art in Public

The whole village had been transformed into a live canvas to paint a picture of peaceful dissent and write the narratives that had haunted the dreams of those young kids since before they could remember. Dharaji, a small, remote village on the verge of being submerged was telling its rich story, abundant with heroes, villains and epic battles to 20 artists from cities across India, in the fear that their saga would drown with their lands.

Black Spring at the walled city of Lahore – Tracing Art in Public

The installation is a web of lights that traverse the roofs of old city homes where once Basant (kite flying festival) used to take place. The lights which can be seen from rooftops make a web in the old city to remember Basant. The urban development projects taken up in Lahore have, and are increasingly changing the very character of Lahore at the expense of footpaths, trees, street vendors and cultural life of various neighborhoods.

We are the Mirror and the Face in it – Tracing Art in Public

The Walls of Lahore Fort present a stunning display of historic frescoes merged with public texts. While photographing these walls I was taken by the beauty of their surface – testimony of a mark making activity. I was looking at paintings, framing specific fragments of layered time waiting to be deciphered like a palimpsest.

A review on Kala Ghoda 2017 – Tracing Art in Public

A festival that is perhaps one of the oldest in Mumbai, The Kala Ghoda Festival goes all the way back to 1999, a year when the ‘Titanic’ was released and the art scene was slowly picking up steam after 60 years of hibernation. The drama of Mumbai was set to be captured in a wholesome event that spanned across a variety of media and places, something that invited the entire city to think beyond the power of money and instead ponder on the magic of art, dance, literature and film.

Barbil Art Project: Redefining Space – Tracing Art in Public

"Redefining an existing mining space through art was an exciting idea that expanded beyond the realm of ‘white cubes’ to include the larger spectrum of life through shared engagement of professional artists and local folk. It gives me immense pleasure to acknowledge this unique collaboration that addressed and achieved a great sense of joyful interaction and a sort of liberal synthesis between the art expression and celebration through cultural and ecological awareness."

These mythical stories are the assenting voices and the visual representations of them which will have the potentiality to recapture the hidden spirit of the ancestors and the soul of the Rikhiyaasan (Musahar) community."
