SUMMARY:Dr. Janaki Rangarajan: YONI
DESCRIPTION:“YONI” is a dance/spoken word endeavor that explores the myriad shades of female energy to question our (mis)understanding of female existence today. “YONI” is a conversation to create an awareness about what female energy is as represented in various Indian traditional texts and to dispute what is seen with the colored lenses of sexuality\, gender\, and other extrinsic factors that have been carefully imposed over many thousands of years.
