On the blurred boundary between organic and inorganic, between life and non-life, fossils are a material and poetic testimony to the passing and layering of time. The cries and lamentations of fossil fish attempt to build relationships between bodies and times that are immeasurably distant and different, mourning the eternal cycle of the transformation of matter, life, and death, in the context of the Sixth Extinction. The possibilities of this relationship are explored by the dancers’ bodies through two interfaces: the skin or membrane, which acts as a motor of movement connecting the inside and outside of the body; and the air, which is traversed by their voices and transformed into a “space before any localization.” The performance takes the form of a progressive layering of bodily and vocal practices that recalls the very structure of the fossil.
