A special performance from Omaha’s tbd. dance collective(opens in a new tab), presented as part of the Luminarium’s seasonal exhibition, GLOW.Upon discovering various aspects within the Glow exhibition, specifically the Shrumen Lumen and Moon exhibits, tbd. became fascinated with ideas surrounding lunar rhythms/cycles and how they affect the movement and activities of various organisms, and the bioluminescence and interconnectedness of mushrooms. To interact with these concepts further, tbd. centered the moon and the mushrooms visually as the base from which all movement was built around, as if everything was somehow activated and controlled by these structures. This led to a darker feeling show, where various creatures emerged, some less human than others – ultimately, things that move at night.
The performance features Mycelia, a work by Austin-based choreographer Alexa Capareda, originally set on tbd. company members in 2023. Mycelia is inspired by mycelia and intelligent interconnected networks; the piece experiments with ways we interact/communicate with, and tether to, each other. Within this performance, Mycelia is a site-specific piece, staged among the glowing mushrooms. Dancers, and their movement, will be a visual representation of the interwoven filaments that form the body of a fungus.
