SCULPTURESQUE

My poetry, my search,
what does the dance do for its meaning,
can I unravel its hidden layers?
Only time will tell..

I share the first Youtube video,
of my dance-poem, 'Sculpturesque',
danced and narrated by me, Jaya Mehta,
and filmed by the marvellous Shabani Hassanwalia.

The poem is from my book, 'The Poetic Saree', released by Notion Press, 2018.
It talks of the lovelorn relationship between the dancer and the temple sculpture. Each an inspiration to each other, essential to find the dancing sculpture within.
Hope you enjoy your sculpture self!
