New Delhi – India
Project Place, not Place

National Institute of Fashion Technology is a unique institution with multifaceted, multidimensional capabilities, design excellence and time tested educational culture. In creating awareness and setting standards for fashion education, NIFT has done significant and pioneering service.
It has taken more than a decade and a half of path breaking diligence and dedication by the academic community at the Institute to develop a system of education, which lays emphasis on learning rather than mere instruction. Students are given strong foundation through inter – disciplinary studies, creating a fertile ground for developing the mind of a professional, while giving opportunities for specialisation in different disciplines.
The USP of NIFT experience lies in the careful nurturing of professionals through a process of analysis and synthesis, which makes the difference. This in a nutshell, explains why NIFT today is spearheading the revolution in the fashion industry, providing leadership in the fields of design, technology, management, information technology and communications.
NIFT is in the forefront of international associations like International Foundation of Fashion Technology Institutes (IFFTI) and has put fashion education on the national agenda by building a strong nexus with Indian and global industries and institutions.

    My place, my place; It lies in the smile on your face; The familiarity of that space; My place, my place. My place is where I belong, Where your heart welcomes me with its song. No words are spoken, no hugs exchanged, But I know I’m home…

    PLACES INSIDE ME. Intangible places / Inside oneself / Emotions that take on a whole world of their own / that become a dwelling place for the self / loneliness / alone / the self / places inside can / be a haven / or a prison / places inside of me

  • Meenal Seth

    A person is born, place (virtually) is created for him... lives, grows, celebrates, mourns, creates identity, succeeds in that very same place, he gets emotionally attached to thatplace, it becomes a part of his persona.

  • Achyutha Sharma

    IDEAS. When I comprehend an ‘idea’, a place is made for it in my mind. My image is about how I view my ideas or my ideation processes which engender a place. I have used material as metaphors to visualize this place.

  • Sanket Khanna

    NO PLACE, A PLACE, THE PLACE, NO PLACE. A place. Every object has a place to its reference or with its reference. Words are meant for dictionary, bricks for wall, leaves for tree, coffee for cups and so on. Therefore a place’s existence is directly proportional to the existence of the object to which it belongs.

    “UNBELIEVABLE - WHAT A GLORIOUS INCREDIBLE SIGHT!” - Millions upon millions of monarch butterflies-on every branch and trunk of the tall grey-green oyamel tree. In lofty wooded slopes of central Mexico’s Sierra Madre, the monarchs swirled through the air like autumn leaves and carpeted the ground in their flaming myriads to while away winter months in semi dormancy.

    A place that physically exists no where… but exists vividly in the bearers mind. A dreamland… pulsating with life and charm with nymphs and fairies sometimes and at other times a barren stretch of the Sahara with its vast lonely extent…

    A place that physically exists no where… but exists vividly in the bearers mind. A dreamland… pulsating with life and charm with nymphs and fairies sometimes and at other times a barren stretch of the Sahara with its vast lonely extent…

    The dictionary has, as noun, defined place as a particular part of space and as verb, to put or dispose. A place is as such tangible and intangible as well. Everything boils down to a place. Every word in the dictionary boils down to a place. There exist no such thing without a place right or wrong.

  • Nitin Bal Chauhan

    PLACE, NOT PLACE. To space or not to space or just spaced out, like me, you, him, she, us and them.

  • Vasanth Kumar

    Should I? Can I? Will I? Is the question for many persons in the society… still in the dilemma to get mingled with the other people or not? The reason is they are untouchables… the society has given the name to them; the untouchables are seen as the unwanted creatures in the society.

  • Urvashi Joneja

    I EXIST - I IDENTIFY WITH MY EXISTENCE. The concept is about identity, it’s about self identifying with certain happenings, certain incidents and absorbing them, creating a dwelling in the mind which is irrelevant of the physical existence.

  • Tiru Tandon

    The capacity to see is not always as enviableas expected. With open eyes vision is blockaded, places are fenced by the humancapacity to visualize.

  • Manavi

    THE FEATHER. A feather floating in air For me it signifies, the void around all of us Our environment… The place inside all of us. The one separate from the one around us… The place we carry with us everywhere… A state of the mind

  • Manavi

    THE HAND. Sand slipping through the hand… The feeling of being in a particular state of mind… a place created through the mind… A comfort zone designed around our fears and apprehensions… A state of escapism… where the person retreats and hides… A self protective mechanism…

  • Aditi

    10TH JAN’04. where do I stand whats my place in this world? do I even have one? or will I just keep walking where these stairs take me to? lonely that’s what I’ve been all my life and that’s what I’m afraid I’ll be forever. friends come and go but I’m just a station in their lives where they stop for refreshments and move on after a while.

    LIVING IN THE PAST. The image talks about the memories of childhood related to a particular place, where I left the signs of my presence. These memories might old but in my mind they are still as fresh as the flowers of spring that often titillates me to go back and cherish every moment spent there.

  • Priyam Bagai

    A PLACE OF THOUGHT. Chaos… unpredictable… regular… functional… insignificant… nostalgia…labyrinth… Perplex... stupor… manifestation… reverie… my PLACE!!!!

  • Surabhi Khetan

    I cannot relate to anyone right now not to my lover not to my brother I grew up talking to neither can I relate to the whole campus nor to the people… to nothing and I know nothing can relate to me its like a place not place where I find my comfort.
