Like the ouroboros, a mythical snake that bites its own tail, Alina Arshi engages her choreographic process through loops and knots of intensity. Twisting her body in series of repetitive movements, echoing the percussive, progressive density of the soundtrack, Alina Arshi stages an all-consuming, visceral gesture, incorporating references to mudrās, symbolic hand gestures practiced in Indian dance. Entepfuhl expresses the quest for identity and the feeling of being out of place when living between several cultures.
Biography
Alina Arshi was born in Lucknow, India. She currently works as a dancer and choreographer based in Lausanne, Switzerland. Entepfuhl was created in February 2023 as part of her Bachelor's project at La Manufacture, Haute École des Arts de la Scène.
