TOUCH — Deepa Mani & Sheena Chundee
Event description
Cross the seas of culture, community, and connection with Chandralaya and Rebel Stepz Arts through ‘TOUCH’.
‘TOUCH’ demonstrates the power of merging cultures and the beauty and peace that can be achieved through respect, regardless of race or ethnicity.
Exploring the world through the eyes of two South Asian dancers, the audience will be taken on a unique journey that aims to melt away the barriers of division.
The two artists hail from similar cultural backgrounds, but the difference in their chosen art forms is bold. Through Ballet and Bharathanatyam, ‘TOUCH’ is hoping to dance upon a plain that still feels off-limits. The juxtaposition of both forms is both gentle and grand – and the story will unfold to tell its tale.
This project received Cash for Equity through the Fringe Fund, as part of the Ralph Mclean Microgrants program.
