Dance the effects that plants have on your body.

Coreografías selváticas is a piece that links live arts, anthropology and some experience of the plant world. It is an attempt to create a combined presence encompassing plants, the performer and the audience. Coreografías selváticas is about communication with plant life forms and the interest in the connections that we humans have been forging with the plant world. Whether through experimentation, alchemy or cultivation. Through rituals, shamanic ceremonies or recreational and culinary uses. Plants, medicine and poison. Food. Coreografías selváticas aims to be a book on botany in motion, an open book at least, to expand the aesthetic experience to other fields of perception.

 

Adriana Reyes is an anthropologist and creator in the field of live arts. She holds a Master’s Degree in Feminist Studies, specialising in sexualities and diversity.
