Choreography

This section was made in collaboration with Nikita Rabbitt.

This piece is a science fiction interpretation of what could happen if we did nothing to stop climate change and reached the point of civilization collapse. It begins with a group navigating shifting social structures and an increasingly hostile environment and finishes more on the fiction side of science fiction, with the experiences of a pair of siblings hundreds of years later as something mysterious is released from the melting ice caps.

A jökulhlaup is a type of glacial flood. Meltwater builds up underneath a glacier until the water pressure becomes too great for the ice to hold it back causing an abrupt outpouring of water from the glacier.

In this piece I explored a physical environment as a way of depicting my exploration and thoughts surrounding what gender is, and what gender means to me.

This is an excerpt of a larger piece that explores human nature and its contradictions. I am fascinated by human nature because it is so paradoxical. In this section of the piece, I focused on how humans relate to the environment. Many of our actions harm the world we live on, but due to how natural systems are set up, the harm we cause will eventually be returned to us unless we change our relationship to the environment.
