Paaoolkhuna - Imprints of Maharashtra
CSMIA's Terminal 2 (T2), visited by over 65000 national and international travellers on a daily basis is home to the Jaya He GVK New Museum. This museum, unlike traditional museums, is spread across 2 lakh sq.ft. of wall space and features art from across the country. It has been widely appreciated by travellers and invites every person to glimpse and develop an appreciation for art. Unlike traditional museums, which require dedicated visits, the Jaya He GVK New Museum brings art to the individual. It is therefore unique and inclusive with the clear intent of showcasing the best of India and promoting art. The Jaya He Carnival, hosted by the museum, is an opportunity to expand the opportunity and level of engagement through additional artworks, displays, featured performances and sharing of information.

In 2019, this Carnival will take the form of Paaoolkhuna, and be operational from 15th May to the end of July.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL:
The festival will be centred around 75 days from 15th May to end July 2019. It is part of an international event – the International Council of Museum’s (ICOM) International Museum Day. Scheduled for 18th May 2019, the theme for this day is Museums as Cultural hubs – The Future of Tradition. In 2018, more than 40,000 museums participated in ICOM’s International Museum Day from across 158 countries.

Paaoolkhuna will focus on five regions of Maharashtra - Konkan, Khandesh, Desh, Vidarbha & Marathwada, while retaining Mumbai in focus throughout. Each region (in the order mentioned above) will have a 2-week focus. Engagement will be at multiple locations across the airport.

The Paaoolkhuna - Jaya He Carnival began with the terminal being transformed through the colours of Maharashtrian culture.

Recycled cardboard and corrugated sheets were transmuted into art installations inspired by the caves at Ajanta (Left). The installations also included the largest 3D printed installation in India (Right).
Through its art installations and selfie points, the Carnival relays a message of conscious upcycling and creates awareness about Maharashtrian culture. The selfie points included one that is inspired by Paithani sarees of Maharashtra and is made of recycled plastic wrappers with hand-embroidered Paithani motifs on the plastic handloom base (Left). Another point, created by students of an art college, brought together various aspects of the culture of Maharashtra.
