Agni

By Ashley Lobo

Synopsis

"Agni" is the Vedic God of Fire. It is a symbol of light and darkness, destruction and purification, beginnings and endings, sacrifice and knowledge. Fire ignites passion. Passion demands change through purification and destruction. In creating we destroy and in destroying we create. We create to destroy and we destroy to create. In this work, the dancers using Lobo's Prana Paint™ technique, take the audience on a journey of "Agni" as they seek the end. A journey that needs to be experienced more than seen, felt more than understood.

"We're hallucinating. And that's what this world is: a mass hallucination, where fear seems more real than love." - Marianne Williamson (A Return to Love)
