Boston-based Vimoksha Dance Company presents an evening of three interdisciplinary dance works by choreographer Chavi Bansal, blending Indian and Western movement traditions and cultural perspectives. Touched by Water, with original music by Heiko Dijker (Netherlands) and Ustad Sabir Khan (India), explores gender disparity in India. Salt Soaked, with an original score by Inga Chinilina, is a visceral choreographic portrayal of immigration stories that weaves together audience-contributed memories. The company’s third piece is a new work inspired by Moksha Patam, a 13th-century board game attributed to the poet-saint Jñānadeva, that was created as a tool to teach Vedantic moral values and was later adapted into Snakes and Ladders during British colonial rule.
