Field Visit & Study Trip

Industrial Visit to Viveka Tribal Centre for Learning
Date: 02 March 2024
On the 2nd of March 2024, students filling two buses along with teachers began their journey to the Viveka Tribal Center for Learning, Hosahalli at 6 am. The center was lively with the resounding voices of the children accompanied by their teachers. One could notice them walking barefooted even in the blazing sun. When questioned about the same they mentioned that they were accustomed to the practice. It shows the physiological connection that they have with the place they call home and school. The children live away from their parents and are provided for by the institution which is an NGO. The NGO is funded by Titan. The food prepared for the children was with the vegetables that they grew themselves showing their immense connection with the land and culture.

While visiting the school we were privileged to see their labs consisting of the latest methods of teaching including gaming modules of CPU and processors for the computer lab. The teaching process also included major life skills such as mechanical and electrical training and tailoring. This would help provide a livelihood for the students in the future if they didn’t wish to pursue higher education. However, there were provisions made for the students to take up higher education and college degrees if they were academically inclined. They also gave importance to sports and athletic activities. The students were overjoyed to have us as their visitors and made conversation. They wished for us to come more often.

The students also mentioned that they were taken on recreational activities to the nearby cities, hence the center provides a holistic development and a nurturing environment for the students. We also became aware of the need for more teachers and workers for the betterment of such centers and donations for the same. Students were grateful for the insightful opportunity.


Industrial Visit to Mysore
Date: 01 March 2024
The students of first year English Literature students and JOEN (Journalism and English Literature) embarked on a memorable journey to Mysore on 1st March 2024 for the Industrial Visit. The gathering visited several places in Mysore including St. Philomena’s Cathedral, Mysore Palace, and Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary.

As part of the experiential learning trip, the students learned a lot about the incredible architecture and history behind the places visited. St. Philomena’s Cathedral was built by the Maharaja of Mysuru Mummudi Krishnaraja Wadiyar in 1843 in memory of the 4th-century saint and martyr St. Philomena. The Cathedral was built as a gift to a large number of European populations residing in Mysuru in the 19th century. The mesmerizing architecture left everyone amused and the group thoroughly enjoyed themselves while learning about the significance of the Cathedral.

Mysuru Palace was built in the early 14th century by the royal family of Wodeyars. Mysuru palace was originally built of wood and was destroyed once by lightning (in 1638 AD), by Tipu Sultan (in 1739 AD), and once again by fire in 1897 AD. Current Mysuru Palace is the fourth reconstruction, completed in 1912 and designed by British architect, Henry Irwin. The grand palace had a royal feel and left everyone starstruck. The interior of the palace was beautifully decorated, leaving every person speechless. The group learned a lot about the history of the palace through the several paintings presented in the palace and the architecture was simply magnificent.

The Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary was established as a sanctuary in 1940 at the request of renowned ornithologist Dr. Salim Ali. It is a haven for those who enjoy the outdoors and bird watching. Situated on the banks of the River Cauvery, the sanctuary occupies an area of 0.67 square kilometers. Many of the local bird species choose to nest in this bird paradise. The sanctuary was filled with bird calls and helped everyone relax. The beautiful sanctuary was filled with greenery and beautiful birds which was very pleasant. The students also embarked on a boat ride where they saw an enormous crocodile while it was asleep.

The students thoroughly enjoyed the learning experience with a close connection with nature beside the classroom teaching learning process.

Ms Rao was in charge of escorting the students around the Art gallery, explaining the students about the collection of paintings of Bireswar Sen who is an Indian painter, writer influenced by the Bengal school of Art and Western Modernism. He depicted grand landscapes mostly featuring the Himalayas in paintings measuring smaller than postcards.

In Bireswar Sen’s little paintings of huge landscapes, he has used precisely the skill of attentively studying time and location. Within an infinite amount of space and time, specific moments in time serve as coordinates for the human predicament. The artist helps us grasp the scenes which are dispersed in complex systems of seasonal cycles, mountain upheavals and ancient forests, planets and stars, and constant change. They are characterized by nuanced skies, light-filled clouds, cloud touching peaks that descend into valleys, and high-breasted peaks that rise to the sky.

Next, students visited the National Gallery of Modern Art. The National Gallery of Modern Art has modern, post-modern and traditional Indian art work. It hosts artwork from the 18th Century to present day. It comprises paintings, Sculptures, graphic prints and photography in India which showcase the historical development of modern art in India.

Field visit to Shravanabelagola
The field visit to Shravanabelagola, Rural Karnataka, India was a remarkable trip for the whole class. With its blissful sight, it is known as one of the most iconic places consisting of 2 hills. The students climbed 700 steps to see the most breath taking view, having great Bahubali statue which was 58 feet tall. We climbed 250 steps more towards other famous and beautiful temples which had around 17 idols in it. Students got to know the rich culture which is being followed by the villagers of Shravanabelagola and its mesmerizing history and maintenance of the place.

Shravanabelagola is an important Jain pilgrimage Centre in South Karnataka. It is home to the 18 m high statue of Lord Gometeshwara; considered to be one of the world’s tallest free-standing monolithic statues. Constructed in 981 AD by Chamundaraya, a Ganga warrior, it is carved out of a single block of granite and looms on the top of Vindhyagiri Hill. It is visible up to 30 km away. There are nearly 700 steps hewn in the rock-face which must be climbed to have a close-up view of this colossal magic.

It is important to remember what ‘1000 years ago’ means: it is the time when the regional languages and scripts of India were just emerging, when Islam had not impacted life in India, when Shankaracharya had written his commentary on Vedanta, but not Ramanuja, or Madhwa. The Tamil Alwar and Nayanar poetry was just being composed, the Bhakti movement was just emerging, and much of South India was under the influence of Jain, and Buddhist doctrine.

Altogether they gained information on the history of architecture and its moral values.

Learning Outcome:
• Students were able to learn the emergence of religious script in regional language
• They were able to connect with the subject they study esp the Bhakti movement and its writings
• They were also able to know the renunciation of Jainism

Feedback from Students
The field trip was innovative and informative for all of us. Shravanabelagola (Sravaṇa Belagola) is a town located near Channarayapatna of Hassan district in the Indian state of Karnataka and is 144 km from Bengaluru. The Gommateshwara Bahubali statue at Shravanabelagola is one of the most important tirthas (pilgrimage destinations) in Jainism, one that reached a peak in architectural and sculptural activity under the patronage of Western Ganga dynasty of Talakad. Chandragupta Maurya is said to have died here in 298 BCE after he became a Jain monk and assumed an ascetic life style. Gommateshwara statue, Akkana Basadi, Chandragupta basadi, Chamundaraya Basadi, arshvanath Basadi and inscriptions of Shravanabelagola group of monuments are listed as Adarsh Smarak Monument by Archaeological Survey of India. Hence, we all were able to learn and understand the rich architectural monuments of our country. (Amrita Shibu, 19HU6A1006)

Hailing from Kerala, to see so many deities up close was definitely one for the books. I also witnessed many inscriptions and the gigantic stone placements which cannot be seen in everyday scenes. The hill we climbed on was the Vindhyagiri hill where the popular Gommateshwara Bahubali was in all its glory. I underestimated its magnificence until I got the chance to stand next to it. To say the least, being an adventurer myself, this trip was fun especially since it was my last undergraduate field trip with all of my friends. (Jibin Johnson 19HU6A1019)

The students and two faculty members visited two art galleries to have a first-hand experience of how Literature and Art mimics Life. At times we are confronted by description of exhibits which seem incomprehensible; even an artist’s statement about their work leaves us more nonplussed than enlightened. Thus, this field trip was arranged for our students with a popular artist and a professional curator as our resource person who was able to guide and help them decipher the techniques of Art and Art Curating in the National Gallery of Modern Art and also in the serene environs of Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath.


Visit to Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath and National Gallery of Modern Art
A field trip was organised by the Department of English (PG) Kristu Jayanti Colleg for the students of MA I and MA II, under the guidance of Dr. Arpita Ghosh and Dr. Lyola Thomas.

The trip was accompanied by art curator Miss Samyuktha Rao, an artist and a sculptor, who was the resource person for the day who enlightened the students about the emergence and importance of different kinds of art forms. Both the art galleries Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath and National Gallery of Modern Art contained a number of spectacular paintings and sculptures. Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath comprised of art forms by famous artists such as Nicholas Roerich, S.S.

There were different forms of art which could be seen in the galleries such as – Folk paintings,Varisha Collection, Tanjavore and Mysore Painting, oil paintings and photograph gallery, different kinds of puppets, sculptures made of bronze, wood and charcoal. Each art work reflected layers of stories and inspiration behind it – mythological as well as personal. It also showed the then conditions of the society. The art forms also gave an insight on the different aspects of life during the past years when the artefacts were curated.

There were 48 enthusiastic participants who went for the field trip and experiential learning. The field trip was very informative as we came to know about the importance of literature in the field of art. It was also very useful as each art form displayed various anecdotes, realities and conditions of the past as well as the present society.

“I found the trip very enriching. It has expanded my perspective on different art forms. I also gained new knowledge” expressed Tallo Mary, a second year MA student.

“The tour of the Art gallery was an amazing exposure. As literature students we could relate each art to distinct movements. I had an amazing time seeing various artists and the progression of art. The trip was informative and an amazing experience!” exclaimed Keziah Grace Shibu, a first year MA student.
