Today at Delhi Public School, Vasant Vihar, I had the joy of conducting a body movement workshop with young minds—an invitation to discover the hidden creativity that already lives within every child.

Children do not perform to impress; they move because wonder asks them to. Their bodies become language before words arrive. Watching their small gestures felt like witnessing little stars finding their own place in the sky.

They asked me countless questions—curious, fearless, and beautifully honest. In answering them, I discovered parts of myself that had been quietly waiting to be found. Sometimes, the greatest teacher in the room is the child.

I was deeply inspired by their audacity—their fearless curiosity and the divine innocence they carried in every movement. Their openness touched me in ways I had not expected, reminding me that true creativity begins where hesitation ends. I left the workshop feeling transformed, carrying with me the quiet wisdom that only children can offer.

Art is not something we give to children. It is something they remind us has always existed within us.

My heartfelt gratitude to Jasmine for making this beautiful encounter possible, and to Delhi Public School, Vasant Vihar, for opening a space where imagination could move freely. It was a day of movement, wonder, and shared discovery that I will always cherish.

Falling Skies Fractred roots Medium- Acrylic with Gouache on Canvas Size 56 x78 inchs The sky falls not only in stone and dust, but in memory.
The earth opens its ancient body, swallowing roads, homes, and histories. Roots are torn from the soil that once held them, and birds circle above in anxious silence, searching for a direction that no longer exists. In the aftermath of catastrophe, even the landscape forgets its own shape.
Yet nature carries an older wisdom than destruction. From the cracked earth, a solitary flower unfolds—a quiet smile against despair. It does not erase the wound; it simply chooses to bloom beside it. The frightened birds continue their uncertain flight, each tracing a new map through a broken sky.
Falling Skies, Fractured Roots is a meditation on the fragile balance between collapse and renewal. It reflects how disaster reshapes not only the physical world but also the invisible landscapes of memory, belonging, and hope. Within every fracture lies the possibility of another beginning, where life, in its quiet persistence, writes a new story from the ruins.
"Even when the sky falls, the flower remembers how to bloom."

*Craphone Liu* is a Taiwanese multidisciplinary artist working across performance art, moving image, installation, and artificial intelligence. His practice explores the intersections of the body, nature, spirituality, and emerging technologies. Combining improvisation with cinematic language, he creates works that blur the boundaries between performance, film, and visual art. Influenced by mysticism, ritual, and ecological landscapes, Liu investigates unseen relationships between human consciousness and the environment. Working primarily as an independent creator, he directs, performs, films, and edits his own projects, developing a distinctive visual language where technology becomes a poetic medium rather than merely a tool. by @satadrusovan

Denise Bryan , UK
Bryan is an artist based in London and Oxford UK. She makes sculptural installations and 
performance. Her work draws on her extensive experience of travel, examining the world 
through the lens of relationship and the confluence of ideas. By using a participatory 
approach, to share her experiences, people are invited to find commonality and community 
through her work. Recent works have explored the way in which we respond to the natural 
world and the landscape. This can be seen in sculptural work that suggests how we embody 
landscapes that we pass through and performance work that explores how we interact with 
the world around us. This work is influenced by Posthumanist discourse about how we can
learn to exist in our world in a more harmonious way, finding better ways to form 
relationships and to help preserve our planet.
Bryan studied Sculpture at the Royal College of Art and has subsequently shown widely in 
the UK, Europe and the US. She is a senior lecturer in Fine Art at Oxford Brookes University 
and has lectured at many UK universities. She is currently completing her PhD by Published work. by @satadrusovan

Bill Aitchison is a British artist and performance maker based in China. His performances and exhibitions have been presented in major museums, galleries, theatres and festivals in Europe, North America, the Middle East, Australia and China. His artworks are held in both private collections and museums. His output is as prolific as it is diverse with projects taking an extremely wide range of forms such as videos, monologues, group events, online encounters, guided tours, photography, installation and audio art. Despite this, his work as a whole is recognisable for its formal clarity, ambition of intent, dry humour and innovative use of site and frame. 

Aitchison has lived and worked within several distinct contexts such as London Live Art, New York’s downtown experimental theatre, German post-dramatic theatre, European conceptual dance, Balkan site-specific performance and Chinese performance art. His work draws upon all of these and puts them together in a unique way.

He completed a three year full-time diploma in mime at Ecole de Mime Corporel Dramatique. He has a practice-as-research PhD from Goldsmiths College in the field of performance art and movement discipline. He has taught and lectured at graduate and post-graduate level and presented his research at conferences worldwide.
