I am in the process of undertaking a beautiful journey of discovering the self through various mediums of movement, written and visual. In these, you’ll find a slice of my life, and if you look closely enough, maybe a slice of yours as well.

In some ways, I’m caught between many cultures and I constantly seek to embrace and distance myself from different aspects of them. To use a cliché, I would ideally want to belong to no group or no land, and yet belong to every group and every land without labels.

I believe in the power of movement mediums where social, political, and historical contexts come together and the form becomes a living, breathing tradition that questions conventions and excavates the spaces between words and worlds. Taking inspiration from conversations and travels, I look at creating visual spectacles that are coupled with traditions from different parts of the world, exploring the contexts and subtexts of everyday narratives with everyday poetry grounded in our everyday reality.

Artistically, while I enjoy playing with ideas of Home and Identity, my creativity is influenced by memories of growing up in a multilingual, multi-religious, multicultural neighbourhood layered with simple narratives of literature, mythology, ritual, storytelling, and philosophy. While Dance has been integral to my life for close to three decades, I'm also an academic researching on Indian movement practices and their diasporic counterparts, Indian musical traditions, Ritual and Transgression, Politics, Identity, and Memory.​
