Artist
Statement

I make dances that knit together classical and folk Indian styles with street dance, Western contemporary dance, and Africanist aesthetics. I am interested in organic fusion - how things come together and break apart. I trace this across cultures, in search of new structures for honoring heritage and exploring individuality, while also recuperating truths of what I see as at the root of Hindu mythology. I do this through movement because I am investigating how to embody what we believe.
