TQW RESEARCH AFFILIATION with Joyraj Bhattacharjee

The dancer and the hungry audience

In this online talk, Joyraj Bhattacharjee will discuss the potential of developing movement practices from the perspective of a politically integrated art practitioner based in Howrah, India. Grounded in his neighbourhood shaped by the everyday realities of a jute mill and iron workers, and two major slums, he reflects on a movement practice that is the opposite of the spectacular classical, anti-classical, and instead emerges from the repetitive tiredness of working bodies.
