The murals display section is divided into 5 themes - Jour de Pluie, Tree of knowledge, Awakening, A Beautiful Mind and Dance of Life. The first theme, Jour de Pluie, celebrates the city of love – Paris. One of the most romantic cities in the world, Paris is synonymous with beauty. Tree of Knowledge revolves around the eternal conflict which stresses on the definition of wealth in society. The space depicts that knowledge blossoms despite of being overpowered by money. The next theme Awakening exposes darkness and secrecy infused with beauty, comfort and hope. It beautifully explores common society issues targeting women and looks at different facets of a woman’s existence. A Beautiful Mind is a tribute to one of the truest mavericks of the modern world – Steve Jobs. Conceived in strongly chromatic tones against a backdrop of pure white, reminiscent of the creative mind of the man. Dance of Life lives true to its name with a focus on conceptual twists and turns of fluidity and impalpability of the body as a social and political concept.
