Follow Your Grief

Solo-performance, 10 min, 2024
Text and performance - Dan Dansen | music - CNM

How can we find space to grieve together? How can we express grief for the loss of entire species as we are currently experiencing through the climate crisis? And how can we transform our grief so that it guides us in our actions towards a utopian moment in which we co-create the world with other species rather than subjugate them?

In the solo performance „Follow Your Grief“, Dan Dansen focuses on the transformative power of shared grief. Dan Dansen ritualistically embodies a plant spirit from the ancient cultures of Europe, which have themselves been overwritten by the dominant culture. In search of new perspectives on the present crisis, Dan Dansen travels to the past in order to find answers to the pressing questions of our time: A ritualistic search for contact at eye level with other species.
