Wa*cking Kya Hai Aap Meri Jaan Lijiye

Performed By: Sangram Mukhopadhyay

The performance was an outcome of The Kolkata Centre for Creativity Art Fellowship Outcome ’22-’23 and has been well received for its auto-narrative style, subtly infused with historical references to think about the familiarity of the form. Sangram addressed the cultural reterritorialization of the 70s Los Angeles Gay Club style and attempted to map a local iconography of the form while rethinking the dance form as a template

Sangram is a committed recluse based out of Kolkata, who is interested in choreography for live performances and videos. He looks at framing and subsuming the experiences of the physical body that is perceived through a gendered lens.
