What we do?
Advaitha provides a platform to artists from the Indian diaspora, by training them and curating/directing their art in synchrony with British artists, creating the perfect amalgamation of both worlds.
Our Vision
The Advaitha team comprises of passionate artists and corporate professionals who felt the need to address some key issues in the Indian art community in the UK, of which the most poignant being:
- Lack of integration with English artists and culture
- A vacuum of opportunities for Indian artists performing traditional arts, no incentive for young artists to learn Indian arts
- Fetishization of Indian culture as an ‘exotic’ commodity, unfit for mainstream consumption
- Lack of appeal among the next generation of artists and connoisseurs
The Artful Journey
Raaga
A union of sound and spirituality, Indian music seeks to delve deeper into melodies, exploring the sonic universe within the notes. Its essence, while imbibing influences from around the world over millennia, has always been the search for the beautiful silence, ensconced in sound.
The oldest surviving musical tradition in the world, its influence and contribution to global music is invaluable and unfathomable. We wish to bring you this art in its purest, yet modern avatar.
“ Music transforms silence into emotion. “
