Unfurling into Spring with Boston Dance Theater: Performance and Panel

Boston Dance Theater and Native Plant Trust join together for a special performance and conversation about the intersection of nature, art, and science, featuring original work: Unfurling by Boston Dance Theater. A panel discussion will take place Immediately following the dance performance.

Unfurling is a site-responsive performance created by the artists of Boston Dance Theater in collaboration with visual artist Kim Radochia. Drawing inspiration from the quiet resilience of plant life and the writings of Indigenous botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer, the work invites audiences into a shared sensory experience of movement, sound, and sculptural installation. Dancers move through the space like tendrils of growth, attuning to one another, the land, and the invisible networks that sustain life. Rooted in slowness, sensitivity, and ecological imagination, Unfurling asks us to notice what is often overlooked and to sense our place within a living, interdependent world. Reception to follow.
