...is an enchanted world of rituals where my creative pursuit of storytelling, theatre and healing meets my love for working with people, for people.
Epiphany Sutra, which in essence translates to mean way to epiphany, is a designed offering of Epiphanies. Every Epiphany is a creative inter-disciplinary immersive piece of work crafted on a framework of rituals and has been created with a purpose to engage mindfully, embody intuitively and experience wholistically.
Epiphanies can be sought individually or in a group. Ask me and I'll tell you the sutra to gift yourself an Epiphany.
My name is Divya. I am a creative warrior. An inter- and multi-disciplinary performance artiste, my work is strongly driven by intuition and inspired by storytelling, rituals, healing & spirituality.
I was led into the world of mythology & folklore by my grandfather when I was still cooing in my cradle. I got acquainted with rituals while still in my mother's womb.
Theatre really had happened for the first time at the age of three when I participated in my first fancy-dress contest. And then it happened again several years later to change my life forever.
I delved academically deeper into the semiotics of rituals and performance art in graduate school. Three years on, this quest has led me to embark on this epiphanic journey.
A spiritual seeker and nature lover born with an artistic bent of mind, I thrive on self-learned artistic pursuits - writing, drawing, painting, hand-crafting, photography, folk-art - all of which have shaped my identity as an artist. I am also a trained cinematographer, a certified Scuba diver and a Reiki healer.
Baking whole wheat bread is my recent meditation.
I have lived and practiced art in Mumbai, Chennai, Manila and Baltimore, before I made Seattle my home. Here I have worked with several theatre companies and arts organizations in various capacities including teaching artists, director, dramaturg, and of course performer.
I live with my husband and our two puppies, Birbal & Akira. We bond over hikes, gastronomy and cinema.
