Dominique Savitri Bonarjee is a French-Indian artist with ties to many places and cultures. She interweaves live art with diverse media to create rhythmic compositions that transmit the fluidity of her life experience. Her art practice invites metamorphic interactions with materials and nonhuman agents through ritual and ceremony. By creating ‘liquid choreographies’ she dreams of dissolving institutional walls. She regularly collaborates with other artists, notably recent projects with Taiwanese artist Chaong-Wen Ting for Weimar Kunstfest (2021), and with author Astrida Neimanis for Lofoten International Arts Festival (2019). She has shown work internationally. Her current doctoral project in the Art Department at Goldsmiths University of London, proposes ‘practices of knowing’ as an embodied methodology inspired by the Eastern spiritual traditions of non-duality.
