I Saw a God Dance has a serendipitous beginning that take us all the way back to 1938, when Tom D’aguiar filmed the Indian choreographer and dancer Ram Gopal in his youth, dancing on the terrace of his large bungalow in Bangalore. Abraham found this footage by accident in a plastic bag in D’aguiar’s house (on whom Abraham made her film Straight , and she revisits the deteriorating footage of Ram Gopal ten years later to embark on a different exploration of another man and his professional and personal quests. Bringing together the heavily blemished 8mm footage with photographs, documents, reviews, audio, and recent interviews with those who knew him, I Saw a God Dance conjures Ram Gopal’s life from disparate archival fragments.

Ayisha Abraham

Lives and works in Bangalore, India Ayisha Abraham’s work includes installations, short digital films and artist’s books. Much of her work has been about looking for and working with found material–old photographs and 8mm home movies. She plays with the original form by cutting, repositioning, repeating images and sound, and by chan­ging the scale she transports the viewer into confronting a world where the everyday begins to look strange and unfamiliar. Her work engages with notions of memory, history, migration and the natural world. Ayisha Abraham’s art is conceptual and addresses audiences at home and internationally. She works at Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology and has been a member of the artist’s collective Bar1 (Bengaluru Artist’s Residency).
