Time is a Construct
Time. Stillness. Circles. That is how we live day in and day out in this world, together with the limiting beliefs that we get conditioned with. Inspired by confined spaces and the feeling of being confined by time, Reshma analyzes how the world is seen through the Western lens. The use of spoken word complements the movement and reflects on the topic of time. Her creative process has been marked by a reflection of life experiences. Ultimately, this solo work represents the interplay between perception versus reality, the feeling of being trapped versus being free.
