Himalayan Dances

The special landscape in the Valley of the Flowers national park in the Himalayas is distinguished by its brilliant colors and the variety of its flora and fauna. Marc Cunningham was deeply influenced by the temple dances of this region. The theme behind these dances, which were originally religious performances and for which the dancers dress in colorful garb, is the tension between good and evil. In Himalayan Dances - Valley of Flowers, various aspects of this ancient dance form are brought into the spotlight.
