Kiruthika Rathanaswami & Malavika Santhosh

Shiva (he)/Shakti (she)

Shiva (he)/Shakti (she) explores the duality of life through the Indian classical dance form Bharata Natyam. Choreographed by Jai Govinda for two accomplished dancers, this scintillating work is rooted in Hindu mythology and expresses how the synthesis of passive and active energies brings harmony, and drives all creation.
