'1989' is a 70-minute solo choreographed as first initiative of the new production house launched by NarenJayan Studio on 95th birth anniversary of renowned choreographer Narendra Sharma on September 21, 2018. This solo, built in collaboration with dancer Subhasish Dey, evolved over 5 months. Narrative is a reflection on the dancer's own journey as being born in 1989, in Assam, the East, and contrasting it with cataclysmic events that occurred in the year 1989 all over the world. Blended with elements of movement, sound and design, the dancer explores ideas of identity in a globalized world.
