Site-specific dance in and by Northern Michigan lakes brings Petra Kuppers experientially into a different relation to environmental materiality. Autoethnographic method merges with an attention to the materiality of art practice and the difference dance makes. It beckons: let's merge. Dancing bodyminds in space, in change, in time. Disability, precarity, economy, indigenous and settler history. Breathe in and out with the pull of edge land, the beach, the calmness of Michigan summer lakes.
