MUDPIT

a devised dance-theatre piece

Movement Lab at Barnard College, April 25-27, 2024

 

MUDPIT is the peat bog from which we emerged, into which we will return. Decomposing, regenerating, molting – what happens in the space between the fluorescent buzz of our hypermodern world and the ancient wisdom of bugs, blood, fire, and seeds?

Everything we make is part of nature, whether we like it or not.
