The new choreographic work The Breath of the World by Mariela Nestora / YELP Dance Co. focuses on breathing as an experiential relationship of the body with the world.
Plants are-and have always been- our most important co-inhabitants on the planet. We are in a reciprocal relationship: humans breathe in the oxygen plants exhale and plants breathe in the carbon dioxide humans produce. How can we restore the ecological affinities that bind us in a rapidly climate-changing world?
Dancers and musicians compose the ephemeral organism of this performance that can be perceived as part of another larger ecosystem. The choreography explores the function of breathing as a biological, psychological and spiritual node associating different species and cultures. Breath of the world activates empathy and proposes the experience of a performance as a gathering of different species.
The air we breathe is not a purely geological or mineral reality but rather the breath of other living beings. In breath we depend on the lives of others – Emanuele Coccia
