Wednesday Sept. 4th: NH 7 , ADA Rangamandira
Deepak Kurki Shivaswamy is a contemporary dancer who has been engaged in artistic work as a performer, creator and teacher since the year 2000. NH 7 is a dance duet that depicts the intricate, confused, rapid urbanization in which the dancers vividly capture the mad need to build, demolish and re-imagine the city; explore how people are caught up in this mayhem. The work aims at creating moving images with bodies which will reflect the current imagination of the city and the changing landscapes.
This performance won the Prakriti Excellence in Contemporary Dance Award in 2012.
