Asylum Seekers
Asylum Seekers is a response to environmental harm now called 'Global Heating" not 'warming' and "Climate Crisis" not 'change'.
It is not only humanity affected and pushed from territories but all species. Inhabitants of earth are connected and therefore rely on each other, plants, fungus, animals, weather systems and oceans. Science has finally declared that plants communicate, are inter-dependant and passing information between each other or other life-forms like insects and animals.
As a part of the animal kingdom we have been intrinsically aware of a connection since the dawn of time although until recently in our civilisations we have decided to tune out. Arrogantly we invalidate sentience of beings that differ from ourselves.
In Asylum Seekers guise we activate a ritualistic dynamism and propose questions like "Where are we going ?" or "How do we engage with the elements ?". Our creatures are created from painted palm tree leaves and recycled bicycle rubber. Our Shaman drives energetic rhythms through us and our audience. The sheer surprise of our being here in the world at all is borne out in abstract performance.
Are you a 'glass half empty' person or a 'glass half full'. Are you amazed that there is a glass?
