High Commission of India organized a program called Nirmanika- a production by Apsaras Arts Dance Company bringing the splendor of Indian temples. Bharatnatyam brought to life the variable aspects of Indian temples through the interplay of lights and shadows. Nirmanika touches on concepts of geometry, space, structure, form, philosophy, history, and more in unique and beautifully choreographed dance pieces. Using the compositions by one of Carnatic Music’s Trinity, Muthuswami Dikshitar (1775-1835), Aravinth Kumarasamy has created a moving and inventive musical score along with the choreography for this production. Featuring fourteen dancers, this production also features choreography by Anjana Anand and Mohanapriyan Thavarajah.
