About me

Himangini Puri, popularly known as Himi, is a writer and choreographer. She dances about the things she can't write and writes about the things she can't dance. Born and raised in New Delhi, Himi has been engaged in several Indian classical forms of the performing arts. She pursued her higher education in dance globally; in Singapore, England, Malta, and Spain. Himi's poems, or as she lovingly calls them 'iterations' or 'happenings', often come into creation in moments of heightened emotional resolve. Blending the Indian and Western worlds with a vivid imagination, Himi's 'happenings' span diverse. topics from love, sex, intimacy, and life to the more abstruse such as outer space and horror.

​

Himi has performed her poems  at various stages across the world including at the Festival of Libraries 2023, organised by the Ministry of Culture in New Delhi.
