Talking about the installation, Shilpa Chavan, said, "I'm excited to present the luxury totem ERRE, an installation I designed for Mercedes-Benz, at Tata CLiQ Luxury's The Luxe Life: Edition 3. ERRE was designed to bring to life the brand's three primary driving pillars: sustainability, desire, and innovation. The head piece consists of wheels that move in two directions: backward and forward, signifying the past and future. With this installation, we want to drive home the message that we can move into the future on the foundation of our experience and learnings."
