Cycles of a Shore, Less Seen Than Felt

In this collaborative, performance piece, artists across disciplines of dance, performance, music, and literary arts created a new work shedding light on the current cultural and ecological uncertainties surrounding Great Salt Lake. Cycles of a Shore moved from the momentary to the daily to the seasonal to the geological in its depiction of the Great Salt Lake ecosystem. Through spoken word, ambient guitar, and dance, this piece offered textural and sonic grief and possibility for inhabitants along the lake’s shore, contemplating when that ancient sea might reveal itself again.

Created and performed in collaboration with Rae Luebbert, Samantha Matsukawa, and Nora Price
