Cultural Mashups: Bhangra, Bollywood and Beyond

Runs until June 24

Surrey Art Gallery
13750 - 88 Ave, Surrey BC

"This immersive, interactive exhibit is inspired, in part, by the evolution of Bhangra music and dance from its folk roots to hip hop, paired with the increasing importance of Bollywood films and the presence of its movie stars within western media.

Using the strategies of DJ and VJ artistry, combined with viewer-activated technology, this edgy mashup will "show and tell" as you dance. Feature in sound by Beats without Borders, visuals by Suez and more by project team members: Tarun Nayar, Lady Ra, Suez, Leonard Paul and Nirnajan Rajah".
