KALYUG

Kali Yuga

(Sanskrit: कलियुग, romanized: kaliyuga or kali-yuga)

 

means "the age of Kali", "the age of darkness", "the age of vice and misery", or "the age of quarrel and hypocrisy".

"KALYUG," conceptualized as a modern-day hell, is an augmented reality (AR) installation that showcases the impacts of human development on nature. Through AR, viewers will witness machines overtaking natural landscapes, buildings overshadowing slums, and factories disrupting historic sites while endangering wildlife. This immersive experience aims to illuminate the pressing environmental and social issues caused by unchecked industrialization and urban expansion, encouraging viewers to reflect on the consequences of their surroundings and inspiring action towards more sustainable practices.

Journey

Kalyug is not just an artwork—it’s an experience that blends traditional structures with digital innovation. Here’s a breakdown of how it all came to life:

Part 1: Concept & 2D Blueprint

Every great project starts with an idea. Kalyug began as a conceptual exploration of modern-day chaos and transformation, inspired by layered textures and immersive storytelling. The first step was creating a detailed 2D blueprint, carefully mapping out the structure’s design, proportions, and layers. This phase helped visualize how each component would fit together before moving into the physical build.

Part 2: Layer Cutting & Assembly

Once the 2D blueprint was finalized, it became the guide for constructing the physical structure. Each layer was precisely cut using different materials, ensuring that every piece aligned with the overall vision. These layers were then assembled meticulously, creating a dynamic, multi-dimensional form. This step was crucial in defining the depth and flow of the piece.

Part 3: Coloring & Installation

This is a paragraph area where you can include any information you’d like. It’s an opportunity to tell a story about the business or describe a special service or product it offers. You can use this space to share the company history or highlight a particular feature that sets it apart from competitors.

Let the writing speak for itself. Keep a consistent tone and voice throughout the website to stay true to the brand image and give visitors a taste of the company’s values and personality.

Part 4: 3D Model & AR App Development

Parallel to the physical installation, the digital aspect of Kalyug was being developed. A 3D model was created, mirroring the real-world structure, allowing it to be experienced in Augmented Reality (AR). The AR app was designed to bring Kalyug to life, enabling viewers to explore the artwork beyond physical constraints. Once the app was finalized and integrated with the structure, the project was ready for launch!
