When Your Skin Calls You Home

is a Selkie folklore inspired circus-theater production based on Sealskin, Soulskin by Clarissa Pinkola Estés. This outdoor environmental theater production weaves aerials, live cello, vocals, movement, and mask into wild places, traversing trails and labyrinths. Through performance art and ritual, grounded in Curandersimo, the work confronts what has been taken, nurtures what has been neglected, and remembers what has been forgotten.
