KA is an ancient Egyptian concept; it is the body’s spirit, the conscience and the guardian. It is believed to live on after the body dies. KA is knowledge, passed down from teacher to student. It lives on when the student becomes the teacher.
KA features the choreographer’s teacher, Kavitha Krishnan, her living expression transferring and transforming through dancers who receive her knowledge. KA discovers the interaction of the knowledge within each person. Shahrin creates this work as a gift and a tribute to his teachers.
