Kimberly Paz -Project 3


Third Project

This project was a contemporary Indian dance performance. It incorporated traditional hand movements as well as moderns movements. This dance is meant to demonstrate the difficulties in replicating something in its truly original and contemporary form.

THE MOTIVATION:

I'm Guatemalan, but I love getting cultured and experience the different cultures this world has to offer. I decided to put myself on the spot and learn an Indian dance. My rommate this year, Zehra, is Pakistani and she has been teaching me Urdu and other things her culture has to offer. I took a couple lessons with her aunt and preformed it for the class. I wanted to stress the fact that no matter how much I learn or who I learned it from, the original movements for these dances will always be different. Some movements may remain the same, while other movements may be added to create a different style.
