Solo wonder: Indian odissi exponent Kavita Dwibedi performing in Shweta Mukti, presented locally by Kalpana Dance Theatre.
Kavita Dwibedi’s odissi homage to the Buddha was rich with expression and meaning.
There is a certain beauty in simplicity, as amply proven by Kavita Dwibedi’s odissi dance show last weekend in Kuala Lumpur. Shweta Mukti, presented by Kalpana Dance Theatre, was a one-woman performance on a bare stage – no props, no complex formations, no costume changes. Fitting perhaps, for a production that pays homage to the Buddha and the liberation of the soul from worldly trappings.
