tree of dawn, research project, 2022

​

​

"Tree of Dawn" is a participatory performance project, which will happen on November 13th in Sabiles mākslas,

kultūras un tūrisma centrs Latvia.

 

The project focuses on the relationship between symbolic images and processes of environmental transformation related to human intervention. Departing from the mythological image of the Tree of Dawn (Austras Koks) as found in the Dainas, the work intends to open up the question of whether ancient myths and traditions can help makind navigate the experience of contaminated spaces in the creation of personal and collective realities.
