Who Am I? | Aishwarya Madhav
Who Am I? is an evocative dance production that journeys through the universal experience of a woman's life; sharing vignettes of various stages she goes through - infancy, childhood, marriage, motherhood, and old age. The production culminates in a powerful encounter: a woman's conversation with her reflection, an immutable witness untouched by life's ebb and flow. In a transformation, the dancer embodies this reflection, bringing to life a sacred stanza from the ancient poem, Nirvana Shatakam.

DanceAction | Pathways and Architecture
Pathways and Architecture is a multimedia dance performance, featuring video projections, original set design, and audience participation that explores 'oppositional' movement styles in response to a dichotomy in our identity: our bodies' asymmetrical nature coexists with our human desire to develop symmetrical systems. Our architectural design is unique and full of asymmetries, but we build machines, computers, and systems to create a symmetrical world. While these structures should serve our human needs and improve our lives, it often feels like we are trying to accommodate who we are to fit in these spaces. I aim to discover a possible balance between our natural selves and constructed reality, and find an answer to the everlasting question: how do we fit a square peg into a round hole?
