2nd pg of Presentation@SouthKorea UIKF 2014

Many in India who are a keen kite flying enthusiast do not wish or wanted to be part of the menace and carnage caused by the evil effect and refrain from the death game. This opened a new wave of kiting to regenerate a motion for not just flying  but spending herculian task of endeavouring to create own kites. Kites made with so much patience with an end result of good and big kite fast becoming gaining a creative memontum. But again such kiters or so called kite builders are very small in numbers compared to kiters buying kites spending enormouhs money.

Hence the festivals in India becoming more as show kites festival which are voluntarily supported by the people who witness it with sheer joy of fun and amusement. Soft kites and kites on cultural motifs have identified a place for such shows.

Kites Introduced KiteLife Foundation, India

Kites made by KLF are inculcated from the inspiration of traditional art forms. These kites promote diversity,culture and heritage of India. Such efforts were becoming a boon to those art forms to regenerate motion and recreating interest amongst the audience. The advancement in the urbanisation and movement towards new lifestyle has declined to aspiration towards such art forms which are now confined to somevsetbof communities. KLF is exploring this possiblities of art and giving a fillip thru various kites flying sessions in the country using a medium of vehicle for communication and promotion.

Theyyam, a mythological motif and cultural art form performed in the hindu religion temple, King Mahabali the legendary figure of generosity and an ancient king of state Kerala who beloved to be visiting in the harvest season of Kerala to see and via sit his people, Nettipattam,a decorative caprisoned attire on the forehead to trunk of the great mammal on the our own elephant in the temple during processions and newly made Temple Roof a synchronisation of delta and box giving a resembelence of Desom Shri Anjneya Temple Aluva Kochi are the few made in this direction but ensuring many in the anvil and creator is busy!

Some of these kites are flown in the background of traditional percussion musical sounds, yet again a new ideas which the creator floated when he conducted the first ever Kerala Kite Festival in Jan 2014 at Munambam beach park where his friend Sarvesh Rao's Kathakali kite were flown. Art is a diverse field ranging human activities and products emerged from those artstic works are intelligently turned out to be the creations of kites. Kite inculcated from the art focusses primarily on visual arts which includes the creation of images or objects in fields of drawing and making in appliqué designs. This is characterized in terms of reflection of life, expression, communication and emotion with the qualities of traditional images showering vibrant beauty and grace.
