Awakening of the serpent energy : an Indian-Aboriginal performance exchange

Abstract

This is a story of a cross-cultural dance exchange conceptualising myth as a living art through traditional Kathak dance form in collaboration with contemporary Aboriginal dance form, weaving and celebrating the reconciliation and independence of all people through male and female energy to evoke an ancient universal serpent energy. It continues the poetic traditions of interpretation which accompany the arts in both Indian and Aboriginal cultures.
