The dance piece brings her paintings to life. The performance focuses on the artist behind the paintings – a Hungarian-Indian woman struggling with ambivalent situations and feelings, and with the preconceptions of her environment.
She lived and painted in the triangle of India, Hungary and France.
Her painting is a fusion of Indian and European art. In her short life full of secrets and tragedies, Amrita created powerful works that introduced European art to India and defined the image of India in universal art, by creating a link between Indian and Western art.
