Close to 594 million which is 48 per cent of population in India practices open defecation. That’s half the population dumping over 65 million kilos of poo out there every day. Half the population doesn’t use a toilet while the other one, accepts it. We simply accept India as it is. We are part of the issue, part of the acceptance. That is the problem and there is a solution: Poo2Loo, a campaign funded by Unicef. However, we believe they are going about it in an inefficient way and that is why we want to suggest a new strategy to raise awareness; through interactive installation art.
