Post the session, the two artistes took a picture with the Ruchira Das, mediator of the session and director of arts, British Council India (centre), director of Pickle Factory Dance Foundation, Vikram Iyengar, and Husna-Tara Prakash of Glenburn Tea Estate. ‘It is wonderful to have them in the city and we are excited to watch the dance tomorrow. And of course, we are looking forward to hearing their story,’ said Husna-Tara Prakash
‘We are delighted to host Solène Weinachter and Katye Coe. This is their company’s fourth visit to India and very few companies have come so regularly to India… in the last decade. This is the first time they will be doing a solo. We at Pickle Factory have been bringing work to the city for years and it brings us joy to do so because the art needs to be seen,’ said Vikram Iyengar of Pickle Factory Dance Foundation
