“A Serpent's Lullaby" is the interdisciplinary solo creation of Nana. In this performance she will shapeshift into a mystical archetype inspired by ancient myths of serpents and dark mysterious characters that carry the wisdom, secrets, and transformational energy pertaining to the natural ways of our earth. The dance & vocal performance by Nana, live and original composed music by Artik, costumes by Don Aretino, scenography by Alejandro Santamaria, lighting and more will sooth you to enter the liminal realm of the conscious and subconscious - the place where our shadows lie. She would like the audience to accept the majesticness and uncertainty of our natural world, dive a little deeper into what haunts us and tell ourselves that it's ok to be in the dark sometimes. This performance is also the reclamation of ancient myths where in historical archives they are exoticized, sensationalized and depoliticized. Are we dreaming? Or is this real life...either way, don't wake me up 🪐
