About Liquid Spine: BYCATCH Environmental Dance
Liquid Spine Presents: BYCATCH Join us for a one-of-a-kind dance concert performed by Liquid Spine, a global dance series that unearths the environmental needs of our water systems through movement, community, and conversation. Their latest project, BYCATCH, brings to life the stories of marine animals impacted by entanglement through ghost gear, pollution, and destructive over-fishing practices such as bottom trawling. This contemporary dance performance uses marine debris collected from the coastlines of Massachusetts. Ropes, nets, and weighted gear are transformed into dynamic, expressive elements that move with a cast of six, professional dancers: Jami Adams, Brianna Antaya, Victoria Bocchino, Nicholas Markanthony Giannino, Bridget Nicolo, and Lindsey Zuccaro. Through movement, sound, and repurposed materials, BYCATCH, invites audiences to witness the fragility and resilience of marine life. The performance culminates in an opportunity for audiences to connect directly with the artists, ask questions, and deepen their understanding of the embodied, environmental narrative.
