Ceremony of Longing
Hosted, 2025
Concept and direction by Diya Naidu
May 2025
With Citizens of Stage Co Lab
The process for this work began during the pandemic. It is an offering for us to gather and share what feels heavy, in order to find something valuable.
For a weekend in May 2025 the company draped the studio ceiling in saris and turned it into a tent. Five movers, a soundscape, an audience on the floor. "They filled the space," the house wrote afterwards. "We were left wanting more."
