Baguiati Rail Pukur United Club Durga Puja celebrates its 73rd year with theme 'Collage'

Kolkata, Sep 27 (UNI) As Baguiati Rail Pukur United Club celebrates the 73rd year of its Durga Puja, the club presents an evocative artistic installation based on the theme 'Collage', bringing together art, society, memory and the changing nature of communication.
Conceptualised by artist Somnath Tamli, the entire artistic pavilion has been created using thousands of kilos of recycled newspapers, transforming an everyday material into an immersive work of art. Individual newspaper sheets, words, photographs and textures come together to form the pandal itself, making the structure a physical representation of the theme.
The concept of 'Collage' also finds a deep connection with the mythology of Maa Durga. According to traditional narratives, different deities contributed their divine powers and weapons to create the complete form of Goddess Durga. The pavilion interprets this coming together of individual elements as a metaphor for the strength of collective power.
