SALMON CYCLE
Vrijeme: October 7th, 2023 at 8 PM
Mjesto: Centar za kulturu Đakovo
Pilot projekt: Slavonija Vertical Training Center
Salmon cycle is inspired by the life cycle of this remarkable keystone species of
Pacific Northwest Coastal Ecosystem. The salmon make an incredible journey from fresh water to the
ocean and back again, traveling over thousands of miles during their short lifetime. They have
evolved over millions of years to sustain over one hundred other species by returning essential
ocean nutrients to the streams where they are born and then return to spawn and die.
Salmon Cycle premiered on April 30th 2022 as part of Dancing to Remember – a suite of
choreography commissioned by Aeriosa u Vancouver Playhouse to bring the community together to honour
the 10th Anniversary of Butterflies in Spirit
, a group of Indigenous dance activists whose performances raise awareness of their own missing and
murdered loved ones and fight back against the systemic oppression and violence that impacts the
lives of Indigenous people in Canada and around the world.
