I Can Still Hear Your Laughter
multi-disciplinary choreography by Yalda Younes (2023-open-ended)
I Can Still Hear Your Laughter is a multi-disciplinary choreography that began as a meditation on wilderness as a pillar of care and evolved into a reflection on the attributes of home and safety.
Drawing from the artist’s personal and interpersonal relationships with the ecosystem that shaped her upbringing, the work questions the tension between direct experience and inherited knowledge, intimately weaving together memory, perception and projection.
