The inspiration and the work-structure come from the work of the Theatre of Sources directed by Jer-zy Grotowski, in which Abani Biswas had collabo-rated from 1979 to 1983.

The participants will work with artists and masters of Milòn Mèla:• Chhau dancers (Purulia)• Baul musicians (West Bengal)• Masters of Kalaripayattu martial art (Kerala)• Gotipua dancers (Orissa)

It’s not required any specific experience to partici-pate, only the attitude to a very energetic physical work. Some actions are conducted by traditional artists and involve practice of ancient dances, martial arts and traditional songs. Other actions are based on the work on attention, observation, voice, brea-thing and movements.The participants will actively experiment a medita-tive attitude in the doing, as it is not our intention to flee the reality, but rather to fathom it.
