Tramjatra binds together two cities at opposite ends of the socio-economic table. And that's what trams do. They bring people together. Unlike trains, trams wait for passengers, they respond to their wishes. Passengers are not divided by carriages. In the context of increasing debates about sustainability and the impacts and processes of globalisation, Tramjatra makes new connections through a public arts practice of inter-cultural dialogue. Over the past decade Kolkata's struggling tramways have faced a persistent threat of closure and the operation of Melbourne's tramways has been privatised and automated. By traveling between two different urban realties, Tramjatra provokes both a local and global engagement in the challenges of moving and being moved in contemporary urban life.
