Poem by - Kalyani SaradaDevansh Gandhi is a contemporary dancer/ choreographer, based off Bangalore. He completed his diploma in Movement Arts and Mixed Media from the renowned Attakkalari Centre for Movement Arts, Bangalore, India, in 2019. He currently facilitates workshops in contemporary dance techniques and Bollywood freestyle.
All the dancers in this production have graduated from Attakkalari Centre of Movement Arts and Mixed Media.
The story of 'Black is the Colour' started as a personal journey to understand and connect with Devansh's trysts with sleep paralysis and insomnia. Inspired from his own experiences of sleepless nights, he worked with dancers to explore and evoke intimate responses from individual physical and mental spaces.
We have worked with breath patterns, glitches, improvisations, darkness and light to unveil unconscious impulses and fears triggered through the subconscious mind.
The piece Black is the Color is a visual and sensory journey for the audience and the dancers.
With your support the work premiered in Bengaluru on 5th September’21 at Bangalore International Centre ( BIC ) with a live audience.
