The Art of War: When Art Remembers What War Forgot
Divya Warier is an acclaimed Mohiniyattam soloist and a leading exponent of the Sougandhika style trained under Guru Dr Neena Prasad. A graded Doordarshan artist in both Mohiniyattam and Bharatanatyam, she has performed at prestigious cultural venues such as the Khajuraho and Mukteswar Dance Festivals, Soorya Festival, Theatre Mandapa in Paris and the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre.
She is the Founder of Avyukt Arts and Trustee of the Warrier Foundation, an NGO that has supported over 3,000 underprivileged children through Vedic education and arts initiatives for more than 14 years. Her projects Pratiroop, Dance Residency, Dance for a Cause and Marga Parichay reflect her dedication to nurturing future artists and creating space for Indian classical dance in contemporary culture.
Her production, The Art of War – When Art Remembers What War Forgot, explores what remains when everything else is lost, when memory fades and when the body becomes the final archive. The work looks at war as a human condition rather than a battlefield, examining how art becomes a vessel of remembrance when history forgets.
Through Mohiniyatta, Divya weaves poetry, music and silence into a meditative reflection on endurance and memory. Rooted in restraint and stillness, the choreography becomes a metaphor for survival and renewal, reminding audiences that when destruction erases, art restores and when art remembers, humanity returns.
