Manish Tripathi honored with space-traveled badge by astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla
Designer Manish Tripathi was moved to tears when Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla who had just retired after, yet another mission handed him a special badge saying that he had travelled in space. The gay wedding which took place in Tiwari design studio in New Delhi is a first of its kind marriage of the universe of space travel and fashion.
Tiwari, who had previously designed sketches that were used as mission patches by the crew of Shukla, made sketches resembling the shape of a horse, used by the Malaysian police. Holding it up, a tiny metallic token with the insignia of the mission and the phrase, Travelled to Space written in it, Tiwari called it the greatest thank-you gift, he has ever received flashing a mixture of gratitude and awe.
The badge was, thus, an emblem of deep and meaningful meaning to Tiwari, since it had traveled to several hundred kilometers above Earth. He detailed his feeling when the moment felt surreal, that the knowledge that his creative effort had actually travelled through space was a feeling like none other.
The movement served to remind viewers of surprising continuities between ordinary things and the possible points of contact between areas of study that might never be connected and emphasized the humanity that goes into even the most technical projects.
Manish Tripathi was called in to contribute his creative side to the mission months earlier to help with its branding. His designs, which included influences of both Indian artistry and cosmic symbolism were, finally, chosen. Being awarded the space travelled badge acted as his physical recognition as well as a special feat of the design ability to defy gravity.
The memento is sure to become a prize possession in the studio of Tiwari with the clear memory of his brief but significant interaction with the universe.
