Moving Ground. The Network project

I was invited by Krista DeNio to participate in this project during the summer of 2021, while she was in residency in Djerassi Resident Artist  Program, and to join MovingGround. It has been an amazing experience as a performer and co-creator to dance, play, exchange ideas, prepare meals with dedicated artists in nature.
​For more information: https://movingground.org/network/

Directed by Krista DeNio and co-created and performed by an a team of performers, scientists, and designers, the NETWORK project creates site-specific and responsive, audience-interactive, performance experiences working together with the trees and land, utilizing dance, theater, and installation design, to create  multi-dimensional, embodied experiences, connecting audience participants with the earth, themselves and one another. Together we are devising research methods and a creative model based on horizontal exchange, trust-worthiness and healing our scarcity model thinking, in the effort toward a more sustainable and resilient way of living and exchanging. the NETWORK project has existed in many phases of research and development since 2017 and will continue developing models that can serve people and nature in both urban communities and nature sites.

Gallus Gallus Domesticus
Written by Rosemary Hannon
Choreographed in collaboration with Phoenicia Pettyjohn and Diana Lara
 For more information visit: https://www.rosemaryhannon.com/gallus-gallus-domesticus.html

"It is about being chicken; always afraid the sky is falling; about being a post-modern domesticated free-range female searching the environment for threats. It is about the conceptual object of the body, a breast, a thigh, a wing and where the ability for flight was lost. It is about the memory of wildness and the language in the prayers of a prey animal. The intersection of cultural conditioning and biological imperative in this banal, brutal human form is vain, afraid of aging, illness, and death." by Rosemary Hannon.
