How to express as an artist with what comes through us afresh, through our evolved bodies and beings in this moment, while respecting where we come from – honoring our roots and traditions? On Sunday evening I witnessed a performance that both, touched me personally & inspired the artist within. „SHIVA“ by Rukmini (@dancerukmini) , the story of Shiva and Sati‘s love, shared in two different ways. First through the course of a traditional Varnam in the realm of the classical Indian dance form Bharatanatyam. The second half, Rukmini took the same story, and still drawing from the classical vocabulary of Bharatanatyam, this time breaking down the emotive content to pure physicality and an inferred narrative that is not literal, resulting in a contemporary style that morphs her mastery of tradition into an expanded and feeling based dimension, bringing forth her unique creation. To see how she spent half the stage time to honor her roots, and half the stage time to honor herself and what comes through her, touched me deeply, inspired and left me wondering … what could that look like for me, to honor my roots & the art that comes through. . 📸 All from the second half of SHIVA , but the very last one is from the first half. ✨ The Europe tour is still going! 14.2. in Frankfurt, 15.2. in Amsterdam, 21.2. in Basel. I included the posters in the slides. This is a rare opportunity to experience some very special performances. 🙏🏽 Rukmini for sharing your he·art with us. 🙏🏽 Josephine for your efforts of bringing devoted performers from far away lands to us and for making art accessible to all. @indira_performing_arts @josephineramya . #bharatanatyam #powerofart
