Participants will get the chance to step into Mamtani's world of the unconscious while decorating their own masques and wearing them through the workshop. According to Rivka Sadarangani, co-founder of the art collaboration, "This workshop is about the performance of the dance. We want people to take on a different persona and in doing so, free the self through free-flowing dance." Workshop conductor Ishita explains, "I would want the participants to loosen up and discover their inner self through the rhythm and flow of movement."
Participants can move to the beats of Mamtani's animated works and German artists Avenue of Poplar Munich, Bernhard Herda and Peter Weiersmüllerwhich.
