Rooted is an abstract dialogue between two unlikely companions – a bonsai plant and a dancer. The piece disentangles issues relevant to both beings: travelling or remaining local, pruning as aesthetic manipulation, interconnection, and the experience and effects of time. This work moves through questions of agency, power, and balance. Are plant and dancer equal? Can they breathe together?
