Experimenter in collaboration with St+art India Foundation is thrilled to present CAMP’s monumental seven channel installation 'Bombay Tilts Down' for the first time in its home city of Mumbai, during Mumbai Gallery Weekend. 

A landscape movie in facets, ‘Bombay Tilts Down' was filmed from a single-point location by a CCTV camera atop a 35-floor building in South-Central Mumbai during the pandemic. Six camera moves that begin in unstable skies and at sea, and descend “into the ordinary” via vertical landscapes filled with unfinished city landmarks, persistent settlements, details without end. A new pact between people, camera and the city.  

Its music, haunted by sirens and poets, is by Tushar Adhav (Bamboy) who grew up in Lalbaug, Parel.

‘Bombay Tilts Down’ was commissioned by The Nam June Paik Art Center and the 2022 Kochi-Muziris Biennale.

CAMP (founded in 2007) is a Mumbai-based studio of people who are artists, architects, filmmakers, and technologists. They host long-running video archives (Pad.ma, Indiancine.ma), a rooftop cinema for the past 15 years, and make art that is possessed of an infrastructural imagination. CAMP's projects have engaged with complex social and technical assemblies: Energy, communication, transport and surveillance systems, ports, ships, archives, housing projects – things much larger than itself. These are shown as unstable, leaky, and contestable, in the sense of ultimately not having a fixed function or destiny, making them both a medium and stage for artistic activity. Their artworks have been exhibited in biennales, museums and film festivals worldwide, and in the streets, markets and neighborhoods of Bangalore, San Jose, Dakar, Mexico City, Jerusalem, Kolkata, Kabul, Delhi, Ljubljana, Münster and Bombay.
