A GUIDEBOOK TO FISHING BOATS OF ODISHA

Illustration Print Design

On a trip to the Orissa coast in 2012 with some members of the Dakshin Foundation, we were blown away by the craftsmanship of the netmakers and boatmakers of the Orissa coasts. These tradional techniques of boatmaking are under threat. The sheer convenience and virtual indestructability of fibreglass and plastic were edging these tradional techniques out.

So armed with measuring tape and pencils, the boats were studied and the fishers and boatmakers were interviewed. The final drawings were drawn in CAD, but rendered in Illustrator. The layout was done in Indesign.

My name is arjuna

Over the years I have worn many hats - working in the performing arts (in theatre and music), as a designer and most often as a programmer. I've lived in many cities, most notably - Montreal, Toronto, Bangalore and Pondicherry.

Through the past decade, I’ve worked less and less with visual and performing arts, however - I still keep in touch by playing a lot of classical guitar and drawing quite a bit..
