New Delhi, July 25, 2020:
The Creative Nirvana is an effort to create public consciousness of social issues using art. Our aim is to germinate the young minds with creative ideas to deal with society and the world at large.
On 10th May 2020, we launched our first pan India art competition “The MahARTma @ 150” commemorating 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. The Competition theme was ‘Recycle for the Life Cycle’. The competition helped the children and young adults, in the age group of 15-21 years, showcase not only the creative skills but also help in generating a fair amount of social awareness of the world we live in. This also helped young minds to think, understand and debate on these topics and at the same time tickle their artistic bone and give them an edge in innovation and creativity.
Yuvrraj Agarwaal, Founder- The Creative Nirvana said, “We got an overwhelming response and received more than 250 entries from throughout the country, out of which our esteemed jury selected 20 semi-finalists. These semi-finalists were showcased on our social handles for public voting.”
The rigorous selection process consisted of jury evaluation of artwork, original theme & concept, the confidence of participant, awareness of public issues & the ability to communicate the same to the masses. After going through this process 10 finalists were selected. These 10 contestants were asked to make a video explaining the thought & concept behind their artwork. Based on the final videos our distinguished jury decided the winners.
The winners are:
First Prize – Satvik Tiwari, Ascer Public School, Noida
(Winner of a cash prize of ₹10,000/-)
Second Prize – Neelima Byahut, Swami Shraddhnanand College, Delhi
(Winner of a cash prize of ₹5,000/-)
Third Prize – Anuj Srivastava, Amity International, Noida
(Winner of a cash prize of ₹3000/-)
Consolation Prize – Reshma Khatoon, Govt. High Secondary School, Gairtalai, M.P.
Ujjwal Chaudhary, IIMT Academy, Meerut
Shreyasi Pathak, SS Inter College, Varanasi
(Winner of a cash prize of Rs.2,000/- each)
Yuvrraj said, Going forward, we plan to organize many more national & international competitions in the creative fields like Art, Graphic Design, Animation, Visual Effects, Video Editing, Sculptures, etc. The objective of The Creative Nirvana will be fulfilled if we are able to identify & nurture and make these young minds aware of global social, environmental & economic issues.
