Khabare Tahaiyure Ishq Sun
This performance is a visual interpretation of Siraj Aurangabadi's 18th-century ghazal, exploring a form of love that dissolves the boundary of identity. It goes beyond recital becoming a reflection conveyed through movement, silence, and physical expression. When language reaches its limit, the body communicates; where clarity fades, gesture continues.
The work is a present day approach to this ghazal, creating an exchange between poetry and performance, between what is spoken and what is experienced. It is an inward movement turned outward, where action moves beyond narrative.
The performers do not portray roles; they reflect conditions of being shifting, fading, and changing. Music and voice form a soundscape of longing, marking the space where both self and other disappear. What remains when love removes both "you" and "I"?
Perhaps only a state of unknowing..
