Here again are dancers from Peshawar (dressed in red) and one mentally handicapped man from Bulleh Shah's Urs in Kasur. I tried to draw a few versions of one of the dancers to see what I could come up with.
Sidi Goma
Here are some sketches I did at a performance of Sidi Goma at their performance during the World Festival of Sacred Music. They are Indian descendents of Africans who migrated to India over 800 years ago. These particular ones were Sufi Muslims from Gujarat. It was a lot of fun doing really quick sketches of the performance, which was very playful and humerous at times as well as sincere in its devotion. Afterwards I spoke to some of the members. They were all very humble and appreciative. Interesting to see the similarities to Sufi culture I saw in Kasur, Pakistan at Bulleh Shah's Urs this past summer.
