Ananya and Chandralekha - a response to "Chandralekha: negotiating the female body and movement in cultural/political signification."

Article Abstract:

Dance scholar Ananya and choreographer Chandralekha successfully communicate women's social and political power as conveyed through dance. While Chandralekha usurps and reapplies prior structures and traditions, Ananya interprets the new movements within their religious, cultural and political contexts. Both women draw on indigenous and post-colonial historiography to create new dance performance.
