Found Green
2006
Single-channel video, stereo sound
13 minutes 4 seconds

Found Green is an earnestly absurd meditation on the expected, yet often unfulfilled, existence of greenery in Mumbai, India. Found Green unfolds as a combination search and adventure film following the journey of an optimistic local youth. Outfitted with a map of Ward E-IV of the city, he visits the spaces marked green on Mumbai’s official urban Development Plan.

Found Green was first shown at the 10th Venice Architecture Biennale.
