HORN !

Show at Open space of Cheragi Lane, Chittagong
May, 2012. Video Installation and Performance


In our everyday life, we are sometimes warned, sometimes conscious, or sometimes embarrassed by the harsh sound of vehicles’ horn. I have adjusted the horn of the vehicles in a dress through sensor and battery. When someone move wearing this dress and if he comes closer to other person or thing, the bell will ring.I documented a video  where some young men  wore the shirt  to perform on some area. Then I installed the video and dress on the open space  at show. The people who felt  interest about the dress after knowing the activities of it, they performed wearing the dress.
This activities mainly dedicated to the Mirsarai tragedy of Chittagong where the student killed by road accident.
