Raqs e Fana

pop-up

Raqs-e-Fanaa (The Dance of Destruction) is a powerful dance-theatre performance that stages an unsettling encounter between Prakriti—Mother Nature—and The Architect, a symbol of elite-driven development and unchecked capital. Through the grace of Kathak, the piece traces how harmony, balance, and beauty are gradually interrupted, controlled, and consumed in the name of progress. The performance is a haunting reflection on what is destroyed when nature is reduced to a resource.

Reimagining Our Planet: An Eco-Co-Creation Map

Interactive

To co-create an interactive map designed to engage visitors, especially children at the WOW Women Festival. We will be re imagining our world centered on a collective art activity where participants co-create a global map, shifting its representation from political borders and national names to a living, integrated system of rivers, birds, plants, and insects.It will generate a powerful visual statement on ecological literacy and the disconnectedness of all life. This will be a two-layered installation, where the underlying layer represents regional carbon emission percentages, physically linking ecological richness with global climate accountability and human impact. The final piece will be a powerful testament to collective environmental consciousness, created by hundreds of hands, demonstrating that Earth is a shared ecosystem, not a collection of independent countries.
