Drishti Dance presents and evening of exciting new choreographic works featuring 'Panchtatva - The five elements', exploring the concept of five elements through a dynamic interaction of Kathak and Digital media. And an intriguing new work that brings together two classical dance forms - Kathak and Ballet in an intricate cross cultural dialogue. Kathak is a South Asian classical dance style well known for its graceful movement language, dizzying spins and lighting fast footwork executed to intricate rhythm patterns. The evening also features rare traditional Kathak compositions drawn from ancient Indian philosophy, mythology, folk lore and medieval Indo-Persian literature, in a stunning display of the sweeping abstract body movement, complex rhythm patterns executed through fast paced foot stamps timed to precise mathematical cycles and exquisite and subtle emotive expression.
