Often, as people get older, they tell their stories with an insight and a perception that those of us who are still in a hurry, lack. This has long fascinated the artist. Her grandmother Suraiya was her best friend and for many years they shared each other`s secrets, gossip and explorations of Allah. A few years before she passed Diya began recording her conversations with Suraiya. She then started working with the voices of many other people from generations before her. In this work she uses some of these stories to construct versions of our past, present and perceived future. These stories are filtered, archived and interpreted through the artist`s moving body. Each showing works with a different set of stories and through a game of choice with the audience, a set of narratives is played out. Come experience one or more shows to get a sense of how narratives are formed and how our reality is so ephemerally shaped and transformed ! Team : Concept and performance - Diya Naidu Technical design - Maitreyee Joshi and Joshua Quadros Costume and set - Masoom Parmar, Dipankar Panth Dramaturgy - Rashmi Ravikumar Initi al support - The Unrehearsed Residency grant Special thanks - Titas (Samuho)
