UK Premiere
Made within the lands of the Six Nations of the Grand River, Canada and Piha, Aotearoa (NZ), the performance affirms First Nation womxn’s kinship relationship to all living entities. Weaving performance, video and music, Blood, Water, Earth channels the ancestral, elemental and dream world. It is a physical incantation, traversing the sacred alignment from cosmos to womb to earth, a symbolic ritual renewal, and a conscious stripping away of colonial impacts.
Blood, Water, Earth is an international First Nation womxn’s collaboration, featuring collaborators from Turtle Island (aka North America) and Aotearoa (New Zealand).
