The poetry of Islamic scholar and Sufi mystic Rumi (1207-1273) has for centuries influenced artists working in a variety of disciplines. Rumi’s lyricism and articulation of love and the divine serves as the basis for much Persian and Afghani music. With Rumi will explore how barriers in language can be reconceived through various modes of art and, more specifically, re-communicated through the human body. With Rumi will emerge from narratives of discrimination and healing from women of color, incorporating movement and projected animation.
