Description

In a piece stunning to both the eyes and ears, this work-in-progress by Ibrahim Quraishi reinterprets ancient texts to examine Islam in the five nations of South Asia— India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. Five Streams is a theater performance that integrates live and pre-recorded voice, dance, 3D animation, and interactive sound installations to illuminate the three foundational texts in the cultures of the region: Anarkali, Bhagavad-Gita, and Ibn al-Arabi's philosophical treatise "Who Knoweth Himself". Paul Miller, aka DJ Spooky, and Pakistani designer Shahzia Sikander are among a large group of collaborating artists, many of whom will participate in a 2-week residency at MASS MoCA. Presented in collaboration with the Asia Society.
