Swargate Junction...Peace amongst Chaos...photographs by Dimple Shah

A TRAFFIC JUNCTION AS PERCIEVED IS NOT MERELY A SPACE WHERE VEHICULAR AND/OR PEDESTRIAN MOVEMENTS OCCUR.

IT IS A PARTLY ORGANISED CHAOS WITHIN WHICH VARIOUS ACTIVITIES OCCUR DEFINING IT AS A PLACE.

ISSUES LIKE AIR AND NOISE POLLUTION DISCOMFORT THE PEOPLE (USERS)…..BUT THE DAILY ACTIVITIES AND TRANSITIONS GO ON WITH PEACE WITHIN.

WHILE SOME ARE WORKING TO ORGANISE THE CHAOS ADAPTING TO THE ISSUES THEMSELVES, SOME EARN THEIR LIVELIHOOD HERE.

CO-EXISTENCE OF CONTRASTING SPEEDS AND VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES MAKE THE PLACE.
