about

Sector Sorted was a space transformation workshop at the annual Meraki festival of MCM DAV college, Chandigarh in February 2020.

We were invited by MCM DAV College for women, Chandigarh to create a curated contemporary art ‘zone’ called ‘SECTOR SORTED’.
All the objects painted here were from the college scrapyard or kindly given to us by IMI Film Academy, Chandigarh.
This is the second time we conducted a workshop like this, using reused materials and the ‘Sorted Colours’. The 'Sorted Colours' that we dearly love, remains an essential part of our studio's branding and nothing beats the feeling of seeing these colours come to life at so many different scales and forms!

the space and the people
Sector Sorted attracted several students, visitors and ‘Meraki enthusiasts’, who found many an innovative way to pose with the various props of the spatial installation and make the space and the art their own.

The ‘Sorted Merc’ has been spotted in Sector 17 in Chandigarh several times, and serves as a delight to us to see a part of Sector Sorted live on after the festival back in 2020.

behind the scenes
The wonderful students of MCM worked with us day and night, while we put the pieces of this spatial installation together in just three days. We gathered scrap from around the college, the students brought in a car from their kind sponsors, and we got painting!
