Movement for Mercy by Keshet Dance Company
Keshets Movement for Mercy production is a contemporary dance performance intended to examine (and change) the US juvenile carceral system/s. Co-created & performed by a team of collaborating dance artists from Keshet Dance Co and incarcerated young adults from Keshets M3 Program (Movement + Mentorship = Metamorphosis), Movement for Mercy is created through a durational process inside & outside of prison walls, with the work shared through the bodies of those on the outside for this unique performance experience. Through the process we are aware of how the physical space & lived experience of freedom vs. incarceration influences the collaborative process & product. The process is intentionally slow, and leaves room for both emotional care & logistical realities of dancemaking in prison. Movement for Mercy explores themes of human empowerment and resiliency while bringing awareness to a small slice of the realities facing our youth who are navigating the current juvenile (in)justice system.
