Unstable States: Shell(ter) works-in-progress sharing
Join us for an evening of in-process sharing of a new dance-theater work, featuring sculptures made from bio-based materials.
This is a slow, evolving process, built on shifting states—unstable and under continual experimentation. In this moment, Rachel Sigrid Freeburg, Beth Graczyk, and Leah Wilks navigate the dynamics of autonomy and togetherness in performance. They calibrate to states of heightened attention, engaging with bio-based materials in unusual phases of transformation. What does it mean to attempt to prolong the life of things on the verge of decay—pressing into matter and feeling its resistance? How does a visceral exchange with forgotten or discarded materials, like eggshells—a potent symbol of transformation—prompt reflection on origins and unfolding journeys, where body and material might converge and evoke their own cycles of disintegration and renewal?
