Sand Flight / Sandflugt (2025)

A new outdoor site-specific performance on a 6m constructed sand dune, with eight dancers and a choir of up to 50 singers

Sand Flight is a large-scale performance work that invites audiences to experience a speculative future where human history is buried, scattered, and reimagined through sand. At the heart of the project is a vast manmade sand dune, serving as both a stage and a symbol: a living archive of the past and a raw canvas for the future.

Eight performers move across the dune in an evocative choreography that merges body and terrain. They crawl, climb, collapse, and reform — forming shifting constellations that echo both ancient rituals and post-human futures. The sand becomes an active element in the performance, erasing borders between body, landscape, and time.

Accompanied by a visceral soundscape — from deep tectonic rumbles to ethereal choral voices — Sand Flight bridges geological time and human emotion. It is a meditation on memory, loss, transformation, and the resilience of matter.
