whereverever (2025)

Overview

Recorded on location in Finland and Japan—the respective ancestral homelands of Canadian choreographic duo Mardon + Mitsuhashi—this docu-poem intertwines visits with relatives, folk and contemporary dancing, and playful noticings of rupture with a focus on gesture, movement, and impulse. whereverever is a spell to visit with ancestors past and future through the technologies of dreaming, dancing, and fabulating what isn’t and cannot be known—treating the gaps, tears and absences as valuable knowledges, too.
