Pampi is founder of In Divine Company, an activist multimedia contemporary temple dance theater collective. A 20+ year newcomer-settler-resident of Massachuset and Wompanoag land, Pampi is a darker-skinned nonbinary second-genx casteD-Bengali culture worker who flourishes the intersection of healing and education and develops community-centered art that releases creative potential and drives collective change-making.
They have been developing a contemporary version of the natak - a musical dance theater form indigenous to S. Asia - one rooted in its complex histories and one seeded in them since childhood. Each time they perform Pampi hopes to acknowledge the complex history of colonialism (both European and Hindu) in forms we know as temple dance and Kathak.
Here are some projects they've been working on.
