2026. 10 minutes. Digital, 16:9. No Dialogue, Canada.

This work was created by Moving Matter, a collaborative research team developing methodologies for making. Each project includes many artists across dance, costumery, music and film who devote themselves to innovative modes of making that break habits of privileging human-centric design over more-than-human materials and the wellbeing of the planet.

The team is interested in collaborating with raw materials as a way of developing new choreographic approaches, wearable designs, and material generation for screen dance, installation and performance – finding different ways that human-generated design might learn from the choreographic intelligence of our earth’s shifting materials.
