About the Artist

A performer rooted in two living traditions

Aishwarya Bag is a classical dance artist and Bengali kabya abritishilpi — a poetry reciter — whose work moves fluidly between stylised movement and the spoken verse. Her performances draw on the vocabulary of Indian classical dance and the deep literary tradition of Bengali poetry, bringing both to festival stages, cultural evenings, and theatrical productions.

Equally at home behind a microphone reciting the words of Tagore and other Bengali poets, or in full costume telling a story through movement, Aishwarya's art is about carrying language — spoken and danced — to an audience with feeling and precision.
