Art can transcend the physical world, illuminating a path for a spiritual journey. Classical Indian dancer Malavika Sarukkai uses her body as a vehicle for this type of metaphysical experience. Here, she performs her creation Yatra, a pilgrimage for the artist and the audience. Poetry combines with music deeply imbued with the rich heritage of India in this dynamic meditation.
