Sarasa Krishnan

International
Project
Shakti the eternal Energy at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2008
Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Scotland UK.
August 5, 2008 - August 9, 2008
Following on from a succesful performance entitled ’Suvarna Sutra - seeing music, hearing images, painting dance’ at Murdoch University, Krishnan will be performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
The nuances of dance [Odissi, Bharata Natyam, Kathak and western contemporary] are interwoven with visual art paintings and ancient Indian song and poetry.
‘Shakti‘ explores the feminine energy. The energy that nurtures, cajoles, excites and soothes all of creation. This vibrant feminine energy is the core rhythm that ripples through the complexities of this interdisciplinary work. Dancers through their movement become visual artists. Using paint to reflect and deflect movement, the audience is taken on a journey of transcendence. The painting that emerges through the performance , at once explores ritual and philosophy.
This work was previously performed in Paris, France, Florence, Italy, Perth, Australia, and New York and New Jersey, USA.
