HAMZANAMA

"The great adventures of Amir Hamza" is filled with Amir hamza's many endeavors, narrow escapes, romantic interludes and so much more. Each of our groups was given a short paragraph about the endless great adventures of Amir Hamza. 

In one such stanza, hamza enters a huge dome that seemed like it had no boundaries, he finds an iron chest bound with chains and locks tied on the top, the chest comes down, and as soon as hamza touches it, the chest opens itself. The chest contained some very unusual mysterious items that later helped him a great deal. 

The thing that fascinated me in that text was the way the author described the hugeness, the never-ending nature of the dome in the middle of nowhere.

The installation is created to depict the vastness and never-ending nature of the dome.

Soaking the wood in water to make it easier to bend

To hang the final installation, we suspended three bendable wires from the terrace securing it at three different posts and then started tying the smallest one of the rings and then continued to tie 30 strings of the same length to it. We followed the same pattern until we reached the last ring.
