Welsh and Khasi Cultural Dialogues

An Interdisciplinary Arts and Performance Project
Contact us
Welsh and Khasi Cultural Dialogues is an interdisciplinary project in creative arts investigating the cultural exchange between the people of Wales and the Khasi people of north east India. This historical exchange spans 170 years, from the arrival of the Welsh missionaries in the Khasi Hills in the 1840s to the removal of all foreign missionaries from India in the late 1960s, resulting in a complex body of transcultural material. The project uses performance, film and music to construct a series of cultural dialogues between Welsh and Indian scholar-practitioners, dialogues that investigate and respond to the historical cultural exchange.
