SUMMARY:

Belonging, Part One is an original sitework performance by Blue Lapis Light that highlights the beauty of our earth and our relationship to one another. The performance features aerial dancers on the Seaholm architecture with aerialists swinging from the stacks, ground dancers, and projection-mapped imagery focused on the sustainability of our environment.

ABOUT BELONGING, PART ONE:

Our earth is place of great wonder and beauty. Every animal, insect, tree, plant, mountain, desert, ocean, bird and human being belongs here. We are part of a great mystery, interconnected like the root system of trees, feeding and nurturing the other trees even as they themselves die off.

It has been said that when a butterfly flaps its wings, it is heard all the way around the world. Every act of kindness and compassion lifts the heartbeat of all of us. Every act of war and violence hurts us all.

This is the time for us as citizens of this planet to join together and to create the world we want, where we all belong, where we respect and honor our earth and one another.

Belonging, Part One explores our interdependence and relationship with the natural world by highlighting what happens to people when their lives are suddenly changed by climate conditions or acts of war.
