Spine of the Mother (solo excerpt) @ EDGE TWO
 
July 10th & 12th @ 7pm @ the Firehall Arts Centre
 
Choreography by Starr Muranko performed by Tasha Faye Evans
 
The metaphor of the “Spine of Mother Earth” is a name given by Indigenous Elders in South America to the Andean mountain range that spans from the base in Argentina, through the Americas and ends at the tip of Alaska. Our bodies become the landscape like the mountain ranges that connect the North and South (the Eagle and the Condor) and through this we find our kinetic connection to others that transmits impulse, breath and spirit.
 
Spine of the Mother is a collaborative project between contemporary artists living in Canada and Peru exploring the relationship between the geography of our shared mountain range and the deep connection to our own bodies as women and to the earth.
