Multimedia project and performance that explores the Partition of India and its impact and legacy 70 years on.
Inspired by that moment, this multimedia project and performance explores the Partition of India and its impact and legacy 70 years on: the joy of independence from British rule, the displacement of millions in the largest mass migration in human history and the sheer terror of sectarian violence in which as many as one million civilians died.
Featuring the Tar Shehnai of Kirpal Singh Panesar with Vijay Venkat on Viola, Elizabeth Hanks on Cello, Alex De Little on Sound and Visual Projections by Steve Manthorp. Musical direction by Jasdeep Singh Degun.
