<h3>Ashwini Ramaswamy + Kevork Mourad: Invisible Cities</h3> Invisible Cities reimagines Italo Calvino’s metaphysical novel into an epic performance that spans dance genres. Using Calvino’s kaleidoscopic prose and Indian creation myths as a guide, Invisible Cities features a 10-member ensemble of dancers trained in four distinct dance styles (Bharatanatyam, Breaking, Gaga technique and Modern/African Diasporic) and original animation by Armenian visual artist Kevork Mourad. The dance comes alive as the distinctions in form speak to and play off of each other. Invisible Cities creates a visceral space where we can feel both the immediacy of the contemporary world and the energy of past generations vibrating on stage.Top Photo by Colin Kelly

Rooted in the South Indian dance form of Bharatanatyam, the company has been hailed by The New York Times as “soulful, imaginative, and rhythmically contagious.”Ashwini Ramaswamy’s work reframes how culturally rooted performance is represented in the U.S As Choreographic Associate of Ragamala Dance Company, she has performed at prestigious venues nationally and internationally. Her projects/initiatives are supported by awards from Creative Capital, National Dance Project, and MAP Fund, and residencies at Baryshnikov Arts Center, Bogliasco Foundation (Italy) and Camargo Foundation (France), among others.
