turning to stone continues an exploration into new mythmaking that deal in themes of destruction, transformation, and renewal. These dances, Destruction Mythologies, draw on existing mythologies as sources of ancient wisdom and create new mythologies in the search for new knowledge as guides for navigating the seemingly apocalyptic time in which we are living. In this duet we turn to stones, ancient and durable co-conspirators to life on earth, as sources of a subtle wisdom that can help us find our place in an ever-renewing cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction.
