Bhumilucis or “Land of Light”, is a collaborative art project created by Auroville’s school youth. Using only Auroville earth & flora, nearly 100 students aged 4 to 14 have come together to craft a series of participatory art installations and earth paintings with the help of curator Aurodeva.
The young artists, divided into groups, were tasked with a variety of responsibilities such as foraging and painting, or crafting our earth-based pigment: “Mud-Goo”.
Individual groups then merged their efforts to the larger body of work, together creating Bhumilucis.
The project is a dialogue between the students and their home, a celebration of talent, unison, and belonging.
