Yele Oota

Yele Oota explores the inequalities in the distribution and consumption of food. The idea of (over) consumption is discussed through elaborately choreographed conceptual theatrical bits and dynamic rhythmic dances. The piece begins by focussing on the sun being the ultimate symbol of generosity and urges the watcher to emulate the behaviour. It moves on to present concepts like greed, division, accumulation, servitude and ends with the evils of gluttony. The piece also greatly explores the theme of food wastage and the impact it has on the hunger scale of the modern world.
