Performance art is a hybrid that combines many media.
While encompassing diverse styles and media, a constantly recurring element in performance art is the body - in its various states of being.
This exhibition sets forth two propositions of performance: the first as seen in the work of Ein Lall and Anusha Lall, a seamless transition between live performance, interactivity and recorded media; the second, as in Sonia Khuranas works, where the ephermereality of the body in performance is captured through recorded media whereby something akin to performance emerges.
Inside : In : Performance February 10th and 11th, 2006 6-9pm
And Turning : 4 channel video installation and performance20 mints.
Image, music, text and performance coalesce to create metaphors of invasion. While footage drawn from a variety of sources juxtapose the fantasies and fictions with the reality of war, the performers' body becomes the site for relentless replays of confrontation and collapse.

Similarly , Inside In by Anusha Lall, negotiates this fine line between the interior space and the exterior space , between private and public and between viewing and being viewed; as the observer is unexpectedly sucked into the piece, he or she is acutely aware of his or her own altered status in the installation

Many Lives February 10th and 11th,,6-9pm and February 18th and 19th,1pm- 9pm 2006.
Many lives by Sonia Khurana, video installations and single channel video .
A set of video installations and single channel video, Many lives is predicated on the idea of the self as a site of phenomenological interaction ; through this, Sonia explores the tension between the different forces: social and cultural, lofty and libidinal. Be it the wrap-around
narratives of large projections of moving, or close-up portraits of personal neurosis and
feminist criticism , the carthartic self-analysis and visceral engagement with viewers are evidence of the direct connection of the performative.
