| Description |
Sivuun Ensemble Dance Theatre welcomes you to ponder how to exist in relation to the lifeless and living world. Embodying the extinction of species and drawing comfort from the songs of cranes, A Human Wonders creates space for grief and hope. In this ritual-like performance, environmental questions entwine with movement, live music, and poetry. The texts used in this performance are from a ten-part series of science blogs that are a part of Sivuun Ensemble's work Silentopia (writers: Jaakko Kaartinen, Unni Pulliainen, Panu Pihkala and Marja Mesimäki) and from the works of Aulikki Oksanen and Marko Järvikallas. |
