Description

Set within a period shaped by constraint, this work begins in resistance to what cannot easily change. As it unfolds, it moves through negotiation and fatigue, where time stretches and fractures. Gradually, the struggle falls away, leaving a quieter encounter with what remains. Through sound and movement, time becomes elastic and uneven, revealing a discovery that emerges not from resolution, but from staying with experience.

Rita was a Featured performer with Exquisite Pressure x Ouro Collective (Vancouver, 2026), a chorus performer in Disney film productions (Vancouver, 2025), and a stage production dancer in Earthling Exercise with Riksteatern (Stockholm, 2022).

In the spirit of storytelling, we pause to honour this land's ancient and contemporary narratives. We stand upon the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Just as we celebrate the diverse voices of immigrant and refugee artists, we recognize the First Peoples who have woven this place's first and enduring tales. Their stories are a testament to resilience, creativity, and the power of community. As we come together from many corners of the world, may we always remember, respect, and learn from this land's stories.
