CHITRA NEOGY
Chitra Neogy
The 'Movie Lover We Love' explains that for her, the experience of watching cinema is similar to the ancient Sanskrit word "rasa," which means to empty oneself to a work of art. She tells Indiwire, "It s like you re an empty vessel in front of a beautiful piece of art and you receive and it just pours into you." In her course Film as a Transformative Process: A Vision Beyond Technology, Chitra creates an environment where students develop a deeper language of themselves and go through a journey of self-discovery through film. This course is offered to NYU undergraduate students through the Tisch Open Arts curriculum.
