Walking Tour: GREEN BORDERLAND: Tour de Dance
Become part of Green Borderland, a performative journey on foot with choreographer Andrea Haenggi and artist Ellie Irons. This lively tour through the culturally and ecologically hybrid terrain of Crown Heights uses walking as its choreographic base to create a poetic relationship with local plant life. Engaging with the resilient spontaneous urban plants so often dismissed as weeds, the we will use color and movement to forge a connection to this diverse, international mix of greenery.
As we travel from the rewilded "vacant" lots of Pacific Street to the manicured grounds of the Botanic Garden, Ellie will lead us in identifying and exploring plant's pigments and life stories, while Andrea will move along with us, inviting us to join her in her steps. When we pause she will configure her body to the landscape to outline spots where spontaneous urban plants have made their homes.
Participants will receive a coloring guide to the spontaneous urban plants of Brooklyn and a new empathy, through movement and color, for the weedy green life of Brooklyn.
