The 20-minute conversations or circles (as Mentza calls them) that Saha will be a part of will be on:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u2018Body Positivity<\/strong> and Harnessing the Feminine Divine\u2019 <\/strong>on Mentza\u2019s Behaviour & Social Change<\/strong> community<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. \u2018The Goddess <\/strong>and Divinity\u2019 <\/strong>on theArts, Culture and Media<\/strong> community<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. \u2018Her Journey <\/strong>as an Author<\/strong>, and Channelling the Inner Goddess\u2019 <\/strong>on the Books<\/strong> Community<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Mentza\u2019s audio communities involve experts around subjects as varied as marketing, finance, governance, parenting, entrepreneurship, poetry, sports, arts, careers, travel, technology, books and music. People who have shared their insights on Mentza include Filmmaker Shekhar Kapur, Musician and Creative Entrepreneur Anushka Manchanda, Hindustani Classical Music Maestro Shubha Mudgal, Shubhrata Prakash (Director, NITI Ayog), Annurag Batra (Chairman and Editor in Chief, Business World Media Group) and Rana Safvi (Scholar and Popular Historian).<\/p>\n

        Nivedita Saha is an interdisciplinary artist based out of Dubai, operating from her art atelier, Art Studio Meraki, with an extensive practice spanning different methodologies and forms. Nivedita’s work encourages culturally-distinct individuals to think about what itmeans for societies to co-exist in this world. Her work has been included in the collections of prominent museums and private collections, and she continues to explore her inner calling through performances, art calls, collaborative projects, and biennales and art residencies. Saha\u2019s practice focuses on philosophical ideas expressed through diverse forms of narratives. She is interested in retaining old traditions and, in contrast, exploring new ones by creating an honest interactive space for dialogue and reflection.<\/p>\n

        Talking about the occasion, Ms. Nivedita Saha<\/strong> said, \u201cArt is a vehicle for social transformation and individual empowerment for me. It helps me to explore the infinite potential of the feminine divine in all its manifestations. My practice aims at mounting the form and mythology of the goddess to harness inner power and challenge patriarchal norms all over the world. I am excited to be taking Mentza’s listeners on a journey with me through my practice and hope it will catalyse the spring cleansing we all need at the end of Navratri.\u201d<\/p>\n

        To add to that, Tapasi Mittal<\/strong>, Mentza Co-Founder, <\/strong>said, \u201cMentza has always been a space for writers and artists to share their learning and experience through stories, for creators to grow while helping others grow. We are glad to have Nivedita join us on this journey. Her philosophy of art coincides with our approach to learning.\u201d<\/p>\n

        Nivedita\u2019s profound interest in and understanding of mythology, culture, and impacts of faith has led her to travel and share ideas across borders in Kazakhstan, Germany, England, Malaysia, the United States, Portugal, and India.Her residencies include ones at the Dubai Cultural Council, Bernina Kazakhstan, Chaap Artist Residency (Baroda), Berlin Artist Residency and London Artist Residency.
