indian classical music notes Depression: Spoken Word and Bharatanatyam Dance

Bharatanatyam and Spoken Word delve into the world of Depression…….

Do you know what depression feels like? Isha Parupudi and Sophia Salingaros attempt to answer this question through the medium of Bharathanatyam, set to a moving spoken word poem by Rage Tench. Depression, a condition that affects 300 million people worldwide……. and yet, hardly understood. This piece is a powerful portrayal of the lives of people dealing with depression; a theme that is relevant today, important to discuss.

Stepping across the boundaries of traditional Bharatanatyam, the dancers use the power of abhinaya (expression) to depict the feelings and actions of someone dealing with depression and mental health issues, more recently in the limelight with Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade amongst others. A common motif of picking oneself up runs through the piece, representing an action that one affected by depression must do every day.
