Choreography & performance by Jody Sperling
“Jody Sperling traveled to the Arctic, accompanying a scientific mission studying the relationship between the thinning ice sheet and phytoplankton blooms. As the first choreographer-in-residence aboard the USCG Healy, Sperling danced on sea ice at a dozen deployments.” You can read more about her experience in the Arctic and the development of her dance on her blog Arctic Spring.
In “Bringing the Arctic Home,” Sperling brings the ice on stage.
