| Description | This interactive multimedia duet between Ramya Harishankar and Dr. Priya Srinivasan explores the ways th at performance as research can come alive. Based on Srinivasan's book Sweating Saris: Indian Dance as Transnational Labor, which examines the history of Indian dance from1880 to the present in the US in relation to restrictive anti-Asian immigration policies (between 1924-1965), the performance features her long relationship with Harishankar, her students, and teaching processes while questioning dance not just as an aesthetic form but its relationship to socio-political, historical, cultural, racialized, and gendered forms of power.
