anthropological transformation -Journey of a log

Ever since my arrival to the city Tampere and specifically Hirvitalo, I had that feeling of belongingness which I had been thoroughly missing elsewhere in Finland! I came to know about this creative den from Erki Pirtola after my 7 days performance at his gallery , Mutaageni at töölo ,Helsinki. It was during the opening of Erki's show I noticed that boat which was started by the artist David, from lithuania . That sculpture has the possibility of sound and reminded me of the structure of the l0og drum that which is used in our community. It has the similar structural shape but then I felt that I could work on it with the consent of the Moose-house members (never mind the translation ,'tis only a banter!) . Ofcourse it was an honour when I got the news from them that I can start the transformation project from a boat to a log drum ! Hence it started to take shape ! There is this nostulgic feeling and I am gradually working on it ! But even with the finishing of the material work the otherness of the communicative sculpture will go on in its never ending process
