Excerpt of talk on Angika Abhinaya by Smt Anuradha Vikranth delivered as part of Vyaakhyan series.
Angikabhinaya is the art of communication through the limbs of the body (i.e. physical expression). This kind of communication defines the system of dance. It is these movements that distinguishes one system of dance from another. It is very important that a performer should present movement in all its beauty and vitality to suggest emotions.
Angika Abhinaya, has the ability where ideas are conveyed through hand gestures, postures and movements of the body and hence is able to create an aesthetic experience.
