Acclaimed Odissi dancer Bijayini Satpathy explores gender as rooted in the vocabulary of Odissi, a dance form shaped by both feminine histories and male lineages. She discusses how movement can express identities beyond rigid binaries. She will be joined by Sophiline Cheam-Shapiro, a Cambodian classical dancer, in a far-reaching demonstration of gender in motion. 

This discussion presents themes and ideas in Bijayini's latest solo dance piece with live music accompaniment, Trikāyā, finding its NYC premiere at Asia Society on November 5, 2026.
