Directed by architect and scenographer Erin Cuevas, Ouroboros reimagines the traditional architectural feature of a colonnade as a stage. A series of 36 poles will be installed in the gallery space for dancers to interact with throughout chapters of the performance. Named after the symbol of life’s cyclical nature, Ouroboros is told through a series of seven chapters — pulse, diagnosis, treatment, catharsis, recovery, relapse, and pulse again — that outline key moments many women face when undergoing physical or psychological trauma.
