Land Mass: South Shore

 

Land Mass: South Shore a site-specific walking dance performance highlighting the land and environment of the South Shore Nature Sanctuary with movement, light and sound.  

The Land Mass series is a movement to bring people back to the land, back to the self and back to a more contemplative space to witness dance, video, music and its inherent power in a setting that allows one to have their own experience, to bring one closer to this earth through the spiritual act of dancing in the woods, together.
