SUMMARY:Amin Gulgee Performance: “Kiss of the Spider Woman”
DESCRIPTION:The South Asia Institute will host Amin Gulgee Performance “Kiss of the Spider Woman”.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nThis will be a collaborative performance work with 13-17 participants which will take place over a period of 77 minutes. The approach will be cross-disciplinary as Gulgee will engage actors\, dancers\, visual artists and musicians to work with him. This will be an experiential event and the audience will navigate through the space as the performances simultaneously occur around them. All the senses will be engaged in this journey of touch\, sight\, hearing\, smell and taste. Through these senses information is sent to the brain to help us understand the world around us. Installations and projections will be employed emotively. This will be an act of collective dreaming. As Yoko Ono famously said: “A dream you dream alone is only a dream; a dream you dream together is a reality.”
