Tales of Metamorphoses

Sandeep Das

Throughout the past two years, many of us have witnessed chaotic events unfold very close to home. Sandeep Das believes very strongly in the power of art to create positive change, and has curated socially-engaged artistic projects to that effect throughout his musical career of more than three decades.

Tales of Metamorphoses is Das’ response to the refugee crisis that emerged with the fall of Kabul in Afghanistan this past August, and an attempt to make world events tangible for people in a way that cannot be conveyed by reading a news article. The collaboration will feature Silkroad artists Sandeep Das (Tabla) and Haruka Fujii (Percussion) in addition to author/poet Homeira Qaderi— who herself is a refugee from Afghanistan— as they create a new multimedia work: a short story illustrated by a duet for Tabla and Marimba evoking the sense of “a journey beyond your homeland”.
