Assignment 1 - Home-Coming

The first assignment brief entailed a visual representation of the story, ‘Home-Coming’ by Rabindranath Tagore. My first attempt was abstract and a rather personal interpretation of the text.


Keeping this in mind, the second attempt was more reminiscent of a map. The idea was to visualize the two spaces mentioned in the story in a geographical context with each other. I tried to show the contrast between a city space and a village space, by depicting the former as more clustered and busy than the latter.




One of the most interesting observations to come out of this exercise was the variation in the reimagining of this space by different people, when in actuality, it was the same space being represented.
