Desert Body Creep

Dances with worms. Unearthing the future.
Turning fear and horror into an imaginary force, Desert Body Creep wriggles and writhes through a hallucinatory dreamscape of worms, synth pop, live sampling, zombies and shifting bodily forms. This performance delves deeper and darker into a world of plot holes, black holes and worm holes, taking you on a wild ride with the ultimate light touch.
Performed by a dancer and a giant gummi worm,Desert Body Creep explores transformation through decay, inviting a new idea of reality based on sweet and tender destruction.
Choreographer/dancer: Angela Goh
Sound engineer: Matt Cornell
