Memories of Water
Live Show (2025)
Run Time: 30min
The duo of percussionist/electronic musician Ravish Momin (aka Sunken Cages) and choreographer Ishita Mili takes ancient to the future in this multidisciplinary collaboration. “Memories of Water” weaves narratives of forgotten histories, resistance and healing rituals through live music and movement. Ravish and Ishita draw on street-rhythms from Mumbai to Cairo, and dance styles that blend traditional Indian Classical (bharatnatyam) and tribal styles (chhau) with Hip-Hop and beyond. “Memories of Water” is loosely inspired by the forgotten histories of the Siddhi people.
This piece is currently in development to add a live video projectionist and seeks further development residencies and touring opportunities.
