Event Description : "Samudra Kajal Saikia - Performance Art in Context" A Production Oriented Workshop on Performance Art. 

Samudra Kajal Saikia is a practitioner and researcher whose interest in performance art has led him back to the basic question of ‘what is Performance Art?’ and ‘how does it identify itself as an autonomous domain distinct from other form of practice?’ Through his own independent research, and engagement with the large community of performers through festivals, workshops, and collaborations, Samudra brings the focus back to the primary prisms of seeing, experiencing, encountering, reading, deciphering, perceiving, defining, documenting, memorizing, describing and understanding.

This workshop offered by FICA in collaboration with Samudra will thus focus on contextualising and re-contextualising performance art through creative exercises, reading, peer review and collaborative production. Through the modes of games and exercises the participants will be led to develop their own concepts and modes of praxis. All participants will be involved in both theoretical and practical work. The workshop will culminate in a public display/performance.  

Samudra Kajal Saikia is a practitioner of interdisciplinary art practices (including performance, public art and videos) and a writer. A master of Visual Arts, specialized in art history, and the founder Creative Director of Kathputlee Arts and Films, New Delhi. He is also engaged into a self-driven theatrical practice coined as the Disposable Theatre that works in multidisciplinary paradigms. He received the FICA Public Art Grant for 2010, and Ila Dalmia Research Grant for 2014 for research on Contemporary Indian Performance Art.
