Project Description:

One of the five and the most beautifuland destructive element, fire is considered themost holiest and beautiful in almost all religions &yet; it is the most dangerous and destructive. Fire is what nurtures life, source of living beings and the element that brings life to end. It is balance of beauty and gore. Heat from fire gives birth to nature andit also can destroy it.

Thought Process:

We have not recreated fire but we are inspired by the colors and characteristics of the the same from its different sources. We have used the basic colors of fire that is red, orange and yellow and we have also used violetand green on the eyes inspired by different sources offire like fire from chemical sources. We are also inspired by the characteristics of fire such as exotic, toxic,flamboyant, restricted, unrestricted etc.In our look we have tried toproject characteristics in a balance form just likefire in different forms of beauty and gore. Just like we need to have the flame of fire and heat for achieving anything in life and nurture life at the sametime we need to have the fire within us to triumph over evil as well. We have created our look just that way. Our hair signifies fire & our dress is completelyhandmade inspired by the basic colours of fire& the burnteffect signifies the toxic and gore side of fire and theface the beautiful side of fire. Everything from hair tomakeup to dress is completely handmade without anypre-made props and we have tried to go as natural inmaterials we have used. We have been inspired by theabove mentioned description of fire (AAG) and created an"Avant Garde" look inspired by it. We have not left asingle stone untouched in capturing the myriad hues offire that is dim and bright, toxic and beautiful side.
