Meet Cabell Molina ✨ Multimedia artist working across painting, textiles, and collage.

Cabell transforms discarded clothing, wallpaper, and found materials into bold works centered on empowerment, resilience, and reinvention. Through unapologetic female figures, her practice explores what it means to reclaim your voice and give new life to what has been overlooked.

Meet Arjun Gupta ✨ Actor, producer, storyteller, and co-founder of Fontainhas + Dukaan.

For Arjun, storytelling doesn’t stop at the stage or screen. It carries into the spaces we gather, the food we share, and the conversations that bring people together. His work moves between hospitality and creative production, always with connection at the center.

Join us on Saturday, August 22nd at Fontainhas in DUMBO as he shares more about his journey and creative process at The Craft of Creation. RSVP at the link in our bio! 🔗

Created by three trailblazing women creatives, L’Orient reimagines the 19th-century French colonial opera Lakmé through the perspective of 21st-century women.

Set within fantastical locations of architectural spaces, books, characters and references, this modern dance-opera brings together classical traditions, contemporary performance, music, theatre, and digital technology to question who gets to define beauty, identity, and representation in the 21st century.

Watch the full L’Orient Discovery Capsule video on our YouTube channel today! Link in bio 💫

Created by artistic director and choreographer Preeti Vasudevan, composer K**ala Sankaram, and writer/librettist Catherine Filloux.

From the archives✨ Preeti performing: Waiting for the fifth arrow.

An exploration of love, fate and death, the title of the piece refers to Hindu mythology, in which the god of love (K**a) carries a bow with five arrows in his quiver.

As he shoots his arrows one by one, the lover passes through the joys and torments of each of the five stages of desire and passion.
