🔹About the piece
Sakhi - Seeking the Friend Within by Rhythmotion is a contemporary dance production exploring mental health awareness through the experiences of mythological and historical characters. Inspired by the concept of a sakhi, a trusted guiding friend, the piece depicts a journey of self-discovery and healing. Blending Indian Classical, Contemporary, and Oriental fusion dance with spoken word and multimedia, the performance vividly portrays the spectrum of mental struggles, from deep despair to empowering resilience. Ultimately, Sakhi aims to break down societal stigma and foster empathy, delivering a hopeful message: even in our darkest moments, we can become our own guiding friend to find internal strength and self-acceptance.
