Aeolian Rage

A commentary on the catastrophic weather patterns now experienced due to climate change. A Contemporary Ballet for Contemporary Times

Aeolian Rage” uses peer-reviewed research and weather data as its basis. Voice and contemporary ballet reflect the weather data – amplifying the unpredictability and extremity of it. Too many people view the environment strangely: either to commodify it; or, to appreciate it as simply a thing of beauty or play.

It is objectified

The time for these attitudes should have ended decades ago, now more than ever, given the climate emergency.

We place a piece of art in a gallery - an object still, but it becomes worthy of further consideration. We place the visual representation of environmental catastrophe in a gallery - to make it more worthy for consideration in the same manner.

A woman visits the gallery and becomes the embodiment of nature, emotively experiencing the natural weather patterns and the catastrophic. She hears the voice of the nature – the whispers and wails.
