About The Work

Multimedia artist Asim Waqif collaborated with dancer and choreographer Rakesh MPS to create this poetic video, Tarq, as part of the Yellow Line Project, a dance film residency sponsored by New Delhi–based Gati Dance Forum. Challenged to investigate the intersection of dance and film within public space, Waqif created Tarq to highlight overlooked spaces in New Delhi: in the opening scene, a dancer twists, turns, and performs gymnastics within the confines of an rubble-filled abandon shaft.

About Asim Waqif

Delhi-based Asim Waqif studied architecture at the School of Planning and Architecture in Delhi and is at present teaching there as Visiting Faculty. After initially working as an art director for film and television he later started making independent video and documentaries before moving to a dedicated art-practice.

His recent projects have attempted a crossover between architecture, art, and design, with a strong contextual reference to contemporary urban design and the politics of occupying/intervening/using public spaces. Some of his projects have developed within abandoned and derelict buildings in the city that act like hidden activity spaces for marginalized people.

Concerns of ecology and anthropology often weave through his work and he has done extensive research on vernacular systems of ecological management, especially with respect to water, waste, and architecture. Artworks often employ manual processes that are deliberately pain-staking and laborious, but the products themselves are usually temporary and sometimes even designed to decay.
