WOODS WON’T VAPORIZE
A journey towards nature. A surreal dreamscape dwelling in the soft connections of a forest ecosystem.
One tree, two trees, three trees… woods.
A group of dancers along with the wider artistic team guide a vibrant rediscovery of the forest in and around us. A complex and deeply interconnected system that lies beyond our comprehension in its own temporality. Creating a surreal dreamscape, the work draws inspiration from the forest ecosystem and the anatomy of trees. It invites us to stretch the roots, to feel their mutual touch, to ground ourselves, to imagine the decomposition of tissues, feel the sap flow, and breathe. It is a reminder that while humans wage forest wars amongst each other, the forest continues to live its life cycles far from the human illusion of control. The woods won’t give up, they will stay, they will outlive us, they will not evaporate.
