Vaishnavi is a Bharatanatyam student and a psychology graduate keen on merging the two disciplines using performance and movement as a medium of research.
Her first experiments in dance began with performances in unconventional spaces such as public gardens, house parties, pubs, and clubs. By disrupting the trend of traditional dance experiences on stage, she seeks to measure the impact of old art forms with new music and new audiences.
In 2018, she joined The Gati Forum – an arts initiative in Delhi- to develop her perspectives on the viewing, interpretation and creation of movement-based performances. This led to the materialization of her two-year-old dream project – Cat’s Cradle.
