BODIES OF WATER is a meditation and a ritual set against the Indian ocean, and embraces a double meaning as the dance work negotiates the ecology of water alongside an awareness that the human body is made up of mostly water. Setting the dancing moving body as a breathing metaphor for climate justice, the dancers face what happens to bodies in times of personal and political crisis.
Set against our own African geopolitics, and a larger ‘body’ of social dis-ease, BODIES OF WATER comes back to the ideas of how we relate to ‘bodies of water’ as both artistic and political metaphors for survival.
