Choreographer Yolanda Morales, together with her team, transforms the stage into a mythological space atmospherically charged by light, sound and patterns. The age of the Anthropocene is past, the prophesied ecological crisis has occurred. Some people have survived the catastrophe.
​
They still remember old signs and narratives, but are in a phase of transition and transformation. Following Donna Haraway's character of Camille from her feminist utopia "Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene.," the dancers on stage slip into bodies whose human DNA might be related to an insect or even a mushroom web. They have developed a new ability with each other: they can create a nervous, highly sensitive, emphatic system in which every sensation, every vibration is shared with everyone else in the room.

2021 I collected texts, graphics, drawings and pictures of the choreographic work of NERVEN. In the form of a digital catalog I organized and prepared documentation material with the aim to translate it into a visual presentation that can be shared in a digital format and published on an online platform.
