We are committed to sharing the rich world of the arts with people. So, we work closely with artists to create experiences and engagements that bridge the gap between the arts, artis­ts and audiences," shares Sameera Iyengar, co-founder of arts and theatre organisation Junoon, ahead of a talk titled Marching Against the Currents as part of their Mumbai Local series.

For the upcoming edition, the folks at Junoon have roped in Raja Mohanty, a potter, artist and teacher in the Visual Communication pro­gramme at the Industrial Design Centre, IIT Bombay. Mohanty was also part of the Dandi Memorial Project in Gujarat, a tribute to those who joined Gandhi in the salt Satyagraha, as well as a collaborative project between various science, engineering and design arms of the institution, which is in tandem with the topics Mohanty will touch upon.
