Udaiyavar: An Offering in Odissi Dance
Odissi is a classical dance from the state of Orissa in Eastern India.
It has its roots in ritual temple dancing dating back to the 2nd Century
BCE and brings to life the sculptures that decorate the walls of these
ancient temples. ‘Udaiyavar: An Offering in Odissi Dance’ explores the
concept of the Transcendent Being who both creates and destroys; reveals
and mystifies, offers and takes away. This seemingly dichotomous force,
however, reveals itself to be a regenerative cycle; one where
destruction, illusion, and separation pave the way for rebirth,
liberation, and union.
