a journey with Nayana Keshava Bhat & Chris Dahlgren 11.02.2026 – 19:30 The first event of the decennial celebration of INFLUX – the third edition of SIE On Stage – features an unusual improvisational experiment. In this performance titled “Way Stations,” dancer Nayana Keshava Bhat and musician Chris Dahlgren briefly step out from the routines of traditional Bharatanatyam dance and Viola da Gamba music, making room for the formless within the form. The performance will be followed by a semi-formal exchange with all the attendees, discussing the presented work, leading to an open dialogue about Improvisation in socio-political contexts.
