Shastram is a contemporary initiative that looks to question, experiment with, understand, document and share knowledge about Indian Classical dance, its history and culture.

Shastram specifically looks to:

  • Provide a platform to as many Indian Classical dance practitioners as possible, to share their voice and stories

  • Reach out to current audiences through current mediums, technologies and contribute to growing the Industry of Indian Classical dance, so that more practitioners have more opportunities to practice the art form professionally. 

  • Be a cross cultural platform where artists of various cultural and artistic backgrounds can come together, experiment, create and share their art.

 

Shastram was founded in Australia by Ghirija Jayarraj, however it is very mobile in its presence around the world. It has delved into various projects involving Theatre, Film, Photography and other virtual mediums. Shastram Projects  include: 

  • Shastram TV - a web series that explores the world of Indian Classical dance and provides a space for practitioners to share their stories.
