Being anchored in core principles, while changing unconsciously or
deliberately, moving through the corridor of time, has been the history
of Bharatanatyam – as of many other traditional disciplines. Built round
the theme Sthiti Gati, the 36th Natya Kala Conference mounted by
Yagnaraman Centre for Performing Arts and Sri Krishna Gana Sabha brought
out these complementing polarities of the Constant and the Changing.
Amidst a host of high profile dancers who have conducted this
event, this year’s Srinidhi Chidambaran earned a hearty vote
of approval for her meticulously planned calendar of events each day,
(worked out with Aalaap as creative collaborator) giving equal
opportunity for all shades of expression, her own neatly worked out
introductions for artists /events to the point, flattering without gush.
Politely firm on adherence to time specifications, she maintained an
underplayed presence without hogging performance space or thrusting her
opinions on anyone - her greatest achievement being in painstakingly
contacting persons running dance institutions through volunteers,
ensuring a near full auditorium every day, with several young minds
instead of the handful of middle aged and senior faithfuls in attendance
every day.
