The Eternity Project
"The Eternity Project" is a collaborative evening-length project created by NOCO director Amy Querin and dancer/filmmaker Jackie Aldern. The Hebrew scripture states, "Eternity is placed on the human heart." This dance is an investigation into eternity Our universal yearning to understand, wonder, and struggle about eternity. Sub-investigations into life/death, good/bad are introduced.
A variety of religions and cultures are referenced in the interviews as a working language to discuss "eternity." Although the dance is not a statement about culture or religion, elements of both are found it the dance's subtext as a reflection of how we flesh out this struggle of eternity & how our beliefs and cultures aid us in this struggle.
The movement is built as personal "prayers," reflecting some of the salient features of the interview responses: willingness (& unwillingness) to yield to a greater power, yearning for help with Earthly struggles, and a cry to be absolved of human guilt.
