Terraformers

À propos

Terraformers is an immersive, post-apocalyptic performance piece and installation exploring survival, memory, and the climate crisis through movement, imagery, and ritual. Performers Aria Evans and Philip Geller inflate and place four glowing metallic orbs—symbols of protection and guidance—while responding to a live video feed that includes the audience, blending past and present.

Set in a radiant, artificial landscape where nature has receded, the piece draws on Black and Indigenous knowledge of enduring apocalypse. Terraformers invites reflection on what to hold onto, what to release, and what light can guide us forward. It is both a visual spectacle and a call to prepare for the world to come.

Co-presented by Political Movement and The Trickster Institute

POLITICAL MOVEMENT is a dance theatre company founded in 2015 by Artistic Director Aria Evans, a multiracial, queer, interdisciplinary artist. The company creates socially conscious work through collaborative processes. Rooted in the question “what is political?”, POLITICAL MOVEMENT explores social, political, and environmental issues, fostering dialogue across difference and modelling a compassionate, accessible future.

THE TRICKSTER INSTITUTE is a cross-disciplinary performance assemblage, focused on the dissemination, archiving, and celebration of all thing’s trickster! Rooted in nation and community specific creation methodology that enthusiastically invites cross-cultural collaboration. Playfully convened and pleasurably governed by Michif-Jewish theatre/performance artist Philip Jonah Logan Geller.

The Trickster Institute is very serious about play, and playfully serious, and seriously playful. We believe that trickster knowledges, stories, methods, practices, and worldview are a dream beyond the place where we stand – at the Edge of the End of the World.
