CIE NICOLE SEILER from Switzerland
presents

ISSHH(क)

at the Attakkalari India Biennial 2017

Ensemble/ 60 mins
7.30pm * Sunday * 12 February 2017
Ranga Shankara Theatre, Bangalore
Entry / tickets via Bookmyshow

ISSHH (क) explores the links between sound and image; cinema and stage. It’s a work of choreographic research questioning the idea of the group, and the requirements to create a “common” body.

ISSHH (क) draws upon Devdas, a novel recounting the ill-fated love story of Devdas, written by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay, which has been widely translated and adapted for cinema.

On an empty stage with the dancers of the Attakkalari Dance Company (Bangalore, IN), Nicole Seiler delves into a century of acoustic perceptions, taking us on a choreographic-cinematic voyage that questions the infinite possibilities of our imagination.
