Mumbai, January 30, 2018: “Misaal Mumbai” is an initiative by Artist Rouble Nagi. She has painted over 285 plus houses in Jaffar Baba Colony, which has over 1300 residents in Mount Mary, Bandra West. Rouble has done this with the help artists, locals and residents, has trained some of the younger volunteers from art colleges in painting workshops, and has ended up employing 25 students to finish the project in less than two months. The result will be an explosion of rainbow hues that would be visible from afar, stretching from one dwelling to the next in a wave of unexpected energy.
This is also a quick way to create visual impact. Rouble projects will employ people and give them a sense of ownership over the artworks they create in their own community, while improving the condition of their houses.
Rouble merely wants to create interventions, that hopefully ignite some other change. This project is in collaboration with Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.
In the end, she hopes her Project “Misaal Mumbai” will help others to set up projects of their own, be it Mumbai or anywhere else in India. This is just the beginning, as Misaal Mumbai shall be painting another four slums in Mumbai next month. The first slum painted by her did not have more than 4 people and no funding and support. However today it is a different story and ‘Misaal Mumbai‘ has become a movement, where they are painting and revamping numerous projects in Mumbai. After Rouble initiative Paint Dharavi, which she started 2 years ago, being the first Indian Artist to paint slums & provide waterproof roofs, Missal Mumbai is the third initiative and she hopes this has motivated people to keep their neighbourhood clean.
