| The High Performance Rodeo Festival in CanadaHERE TO STAY W&M Physical Theatre and Flow Productions Festival site and video Runollinen puheenvuoro merten puolesta - "a poetic statement on the behalf of oceans". A collaboration between artists in Canada, Finland and France, Here to Stay is a poetic and wildly theatrical dance for the planet's bodies of water. Water is connected to our subconcious, intuition and memories. It symbolizes the extremes of a conflicted world: beauty and comfort, cruelty and death. This acclaimed international work explores the individual's relationship with the sea, through psychology, mythology and ecology.
