Creation of a Cell-womb
The aim is to journey down to the skeleton of the human psyche to help reveal the core potential. Among the guided activities is a focused understanding of ones core potential by relating to qualities of a stem cell and using nature as a mirror to understand our inherent strengths.
Each participant created a representation of the world of each cell complete with its components ( its energy house, core, destruction and survival systems, its own intelligence, its growth, its environment), both as an individual cell as well as a tissue/organ/organ system (community). The entire representation is in the form of a space which serves to remind us of the infinite capacity as well as the ‘microscopic’ nature of a cell.

-Getting in touch with the triggers that lead towards growth and potential
-Understanding one’s own response through incidents and inspirations one comes across
-Creating favorable environments
-Mirroring and Being the Potential
Finally we made it! An idea that struck almost a year back has finally decided to manifest itself at Nalapat Architects. A big thank you to Vyas for figuring out the length and breadth and height and all such mathematical calculations indigestible for my neuron network! We started off with simple sketches travelling into our selves, starting from joyful childhood events. And from there we slowly peeped into the environments that we occupied on a daily basis, the characters that built that context along with us, like in a story. We probed Visualizations and Auditory inputs that fed us and hardened our beliefs. Our strengths, capabilities, skills, our triggers and our responses to them…helping us to slowly peel out layer by layer and see ourselves through a pair of new eyes.
