Kitli | Electric Kettle

Year: 2019

Duration: 1 Week

Nature is a complex web of inter-connected events. Our recent activities as a species have shaken up this web to its core. Amidst this chaos, there exist certain species of living organisms that reveal the qualitative status of the surrounding environment. These living organisms are called bioindicators. They come in all shapes and sizes, but birds are the most beautiful and gentle of them. They are the indicators of our surrounding environment and are a reminder to us of what nature can be. Kitli, an electric kettle is an attempt to translate the beauty of these creatures into an object of our everyday use. It aims to remind us everyday of the beautiful creatures that have left our neighborhood and never returned. To be more conscious of our actions and their fallouts.
