Event description

— Sit with the past, dance with discomfort, reimagine new futures together

Blending dance, live and recorded sound, digital interactive projection, and participatory cooking, Copy of the Copy responds to the invisibility of Indian bodies in Western artistic canons and uncovers lost connections between pioneering women dancers whose stories have long been silenced. Held by Srinivasan’s exquisite storytelling, Copy of the Copy brings together Indian, Sri Lankan, and Anglo-European artists in a shared ritual of remembrance, resistance, and reimagining.

What does it mean to be an artist fractured by culture, geography, and memory? What does it mean to be a copy of the copy such that the origins become obscured? In these divided times, how can we use humour and healing to move forward from these histories of entanglements to find the threads of truth telling that connect us?

Celebrate the power of politics, poetics and cultural exchange and step into an immersive journey where movement, music, storytelling, and food converge.
