Tryambakam (Odissi) by Sutra Foundation - Rentak Bumi

Tryambakam, (Odissi) is an invocatory homage to Siva, the triple-eyed Lord, Nourisher and Liberator of souls from the bondage of pull of opposites. Thus, He is depicted as half man, half woman. He is Lord of the Dance, dancing the world into being. Tryambakam depicts His vigorous cosmic Tandav dance, swaying and dancing to the thunderous beats of his drum as he celebrates his triumphant victory over the Triple Worlds of the demons. The Sabda, characteristic of the Debaprasad style of Odissi, awakens the dancer and the audience of Siva’s presence. Sutra Foundation, a bastion of traditional and contemporary arts bequeathed to Malaysia by Datuk Ramli Ibrahim, was established as a full-fledged Foundation in 2007. Sutra Foundation has been vital in sustaining Sutra’s activities when the arts face challenging times. It continues to provide Malaysia with activities in the performing arts (Sutra Dance Theatre), exhibitions (Sutra Gallery & KamaRia Gallery) and teaching (Sutra Academy). Immense care goes into crafting a Sutra Production – be it in terms of impeccable design input, selection of dance talent, devising sets, costumes, lighting or graphics and marrying them to the conceptual and choreographic intent to assure a flawless production. Sutra Foundation is guided by its Board of Trustees.
