“We have always been them” is a speculative narrative performance about relationships- between, within, amongst and all around us.
It is a spectacle for interlinked multi-being muddle, where various creatures and objects will take the center stage and create new sensibilities and approaches in understanding the world. It takes you on a journey of imagination, of heightened ecological awareness and expression of radical empathy for all living beings, dreaming up what would it feel like to be of a different species— a lichen, a mushroom, a particle, or light... What it means to be truly, wholly Other.
