"Project Mumbai, supported by the Central Railway and Western Railway has initiated India's largest citizen-led public art initiative - to beautify 29 bustling railway stations of Mumbai within 60 days," said Shishir Joshi, founder and Chief Executive of the award-winning not-for-profit Project Mumbai.
"From school children to the elderly, to corporate citizens. We are also taking this opportunity to enlist artists from the outskirts of Mumbai, for whom, this artwork will be a lifeline–for their livelihood," Joshi said.
"In the last few weeks, teams comprising railway personnel, station officials and Project Mumbai have identified all stations that require a touch of art, mapped the paintable areas, measured them and created designs which are befitting a critical aspect of Mumbai–its lifeline the suburban railway network. In due course, the paintable areas will be cleaned, (July-August) whitewashed, and made paintable, (August-September) followed by the drawing of designs on each paintable surface area (September 2024) which will be followed by the kickoff of the initiative on October 2 to October 8, 2024," he added.
