The strangler fig seed dances on the wind, lands on a tree canopy, and shoot its roots down to the earth. The aerial roots grow upwards and downwards at the same time. The small seed take up space. The small seed haunts, curls, dances. Is she a parasite or a symbiosis?

Taking lessons from the strangler fig, this workshop explores how we dance between our roots as they shoot up and down at the same time. How we take up space. How we linger, how we haunt. How we dance in the air. Are we taking over or are we trying to become one?
