Monks from the beautiful island of Majuli, centre of Assamese Krishna worship, are travelling to London this July.
The monks trace the origin of their art form to Sankardeva, the 15th century founder of Assamese ‘Neo-Vaishnavism’. The monks dance in his honour and narrate the playful, sensuous and fantastical episodes of his life as recounted in the ancient epics. Their participation in Utopia 2016 forms part of a four-city tour of the UK, organised by King’s College London PhD candidate Georgie Pope, supported by the Arts Council, LAHP and the British Museum.WebsiteVisit website
