In the artist’s own words: “A resting actor watches as his group of ten dancers entertain a crowd from dusk til dawn in Karnataka, India. He practices an art form called Yakshagana – a traditional theatre form that combines costumes, dance, dialogue, music, and stage techniques with a unique style. This art form has been practiced for hundreds of years, and through actors such as this, it still lives on today and into the future.”
