Dance research - geological embodiment
on posthuman movement and material intimacy

​

In geological embodiment, the body merges with the landscape´s unfolding. Movement arises with terrain, not atop it—a dissolution of boundaries between human and nonhuman, animate and inanimate.

Stone is not passive. It resists. It holds time. A companion. The body, too, is porous—sedimented, affected. Movement is carried memory.

This practice senses what escapes categories: the vibration between dance and rock, a slow undoing of scale. A queer attention to the unnoticed, the unfixed, deep time’s quiet pulse.

Embodiment here is a folding into ground, a surrender to its slow embrace.

This work is rooted in—and indebted to—the exacting wonder of geological fieldwork: the hands-on love for stone’s slow stories.
