Department of Dance presents "Grieving Landscapes," an Interactive Performance Exploring Themes of Grief Through Dance
Audiences can explore the intersection of grief and marginalization through the Ohio State Department of Dance's upcoming free interactive dance performance, titled "Grieving Landscapes."
The performance installation will take place in the Urban Arts Space Thursday through Saturday, with each performance from 6 to 7:30 p.m., according to the space's website. Developed and choreographed by Nico Lawson, a third-year graduate student pursuing a master's in fine arts, the performance aims to highlight the different forms of grief experienced by marginalized communities, Lawson said.
"If we are talking about our experiences and performing the grief [of] our experiences in these systems publicly, that is an act of resistance, of making room for us to be who we are and who we need to be,"
Lawson said.
