WOMB OF THE UNIVERSE

What is the bond between the human body and the living earth that nurtures us, and all of life, into existence?  Inspired by Japanese Butoh dance and Eco-Feminist philosophy, this time-bending performance invites the audience to consider the effects of patriarchal capitalism on the human body and how the capitalization of the body fuels the illusion that we are somehow separate from the Earth.  In a culture which views the body as a mechanism to be trained and the Earth as a resource to be exploited, how can we begin to see again their fundamental wholeness and interconnection?
