About this exposition

This research investigates the possibility of dancing with the geological by understanding dance as the movement of bodies already entangled within deep-time rhythms. This is particularly pertinent in the context of the Anthropocene, where human actants have become part of the terraforming force. The work challenges the conventional boundary between the sculptural and the performative. Rather than fixed categories, it approaches this boundary as a site of porosity and an intra-active relational field in which bodies, materials, and temporalities continually reshape and co-constitute one another. Developed as part of an MA research project in Iceland, the work emerges through engagement with ecofeminism, carnal hermeneutics, new materialism and ecological philosophy, as well as various practice-based investigations situated within specific geological environments such as glacier outlets, geothermal sites, and lava fields. Through these varied settings, the research engages geological matter as an active collaborator in the choreography, shaping both the conditions and the possibilities of movement.
