Re-Seeding (Commons #3)


jill sigman/thinkdance celebrates its milestone 25th anniversary with a new and expanded iteration of the Re-Seeding project. Re-Seeding (Encounter #3: The Commons) is a rigorous ritual-based process grounded in an exploration of our interconnectedness to land and each other. Building on Sigman’s dances and installations about environmental and social justice issues, Re-Seeding (Encounter #3: The Commons) asks what it could mean for humans to “re-seed” themselves on land where their histories are entangled with colonization and occupation in a way that moves toward healing. Is it possible to understand the past and aspire toward collective wellbeing? What can those living in diaspora learn from plants that root themselves in new places and contribute to ecosystems in positive ways?
