Rendu Ghatam was a performance that Sumana created in 2015.

 

The work explored notions of gender embodied in the stories and sounds of the Ghatam.  Inspired by the journeys of three women - the maker, the teacher and the student – the performance unravelled  ‘rendu’ not as ‘double’ but as ‘duality’ in the spaces the Ghatam inhabits. 

​

Between 2015 and 2021, the work was widely performed in India, especially in universities.
