Shilpa Darivemula is a former creative director and board member of the Aseemkala Initiative, a group of artists, scientists, and physicians who use our traditional dances to perform stories of healthcare inequity. We are activists who believe that diversity in healthcare stories should be represented by diverse women through diverse traditional dances, empowering unique women while reminding the medical community about the shared goal of improving the human condition equitably.
She is also the creator of the Reimagining Medicine Festival which is in its second year. This festival uses the arts and dance to address issues around bias and racism in medicine. This was well received at its inaugural festival locale at Geisel Medical School.
Shilpa was instrumental in creating the American Medical Women’s Association Dance and Theater Task Force. As co-chair, she was able to bring dance into the forefront in this organization and elevate other dancer-healthcare provider voices and experiences. Her passion is this blend and creating space for other artists to bring their creativity to medical settings. They publish their dance related work in several major medical journals. Please see the conference and publications over the years here:
