Why does one dance? How does a dancer's body become a living archive of practice? This week on Art Matters, we visit the recently concluded Ignite Festival of Contemporary Dance in New Delhi to find answers. Exploring the central themes of form, identity and dissent, the festival this year seeks to create a new dialogue between the artist and the audience. (Video courtesy: Sujata Goel)
