BREATH IN THE FRAGRANCE
Breathe In The Fragrance is an attempt to subvert a traditional varnam into a deliciously queer erotic and flamboyant experience. A work in progress, stay tuned.
SACRED SACRILEGIOUS
“Sacred” and “Sacrilege” are offered as invitations to the viewer’s gaze.
sacred EARTH: birth, search, offer, rhythm
sacred WATER: submit, surrender, merge, rhythm
sacred FIRE: burn, cleanse, emerge, rhythm
sacred AIR/SPACE: stillness, nothingness, RHYTHM
Sacred Sacrilegious questions the gaze on sacredness as a ritualistic performance and explores the body as an offering through queer erotic rituals to the five elements in accordance with Hindu philosophy (Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space).
The body inhabits an idea or a feeling through a series of visuals as it moves through virtual landscapes. Each visual carries something deeper within it. The viewer’s gaze is invited to stand on the edge of the visuals and make their own experience with what’s being offered.
