Dance installation inspired by the decomposing course of action which fungi encourages. The shape of the body is deformed through the materials to portray the transformation and reconfiguration of matter in the decay.

AnaRosa Ibañez
Berlin based performance artist and curator. Having performed as a ceremonial singer from a young age, today her artistic practice and investigation approach new understandings of the ritual, using the body as an instrument to connect to divinity and access altered states of consciousness. Sound, breath, and meditation techniques are often present in her works, where poetry and improvisation become collective rituals for human and non-human dialogue. www.anarosadechile.com
