PERFORMANCE

I am interested in performance as a way of creating and sharing knowledge,
not as display or spectacle.

Current and Recent Work

Open Invitation
(Artistic Director 2022)

This is a year long research project involving multiple artists. The site of engagement is a landscape that is more than 2 billion years old. Could we move through our world more lightly, in a way that is open to other living and nonliving elements that share this space with us. This has been commissioned by SONIC MATTER, Switzerland.

Still Standing 4
(Artistic Director 2022)

Still Standing is a series of multi modal art works. Still Standing 4 is an all night (7pm to 7am) immersive participatory performance that explores the experience of stillness. It has been commissioned by Hello Earth and Linnaeus University, Sweden.

Still Standing 4 is an open source score, that can be done by any group of people any where in the world!

It is a two part video project collaboration between two performing artists and researchers - Shabari Rao and Kumudha Chandrasekaran, aimed at bridging the worlds of theory and practice through collective conversations.
