Of The Wild
Exploring the intersection of ritual, performance & ecology.
Weaving the metaphorical language of art and ritual with ecological awareness to deepen our connection with the rhythm of nature.
Performing the sacred art of Ritual
We host seasonal public events/rituals/performances, where art & ecology meet creating a unique, immersive experience.
We are Of The Wild; a collective of aerialists, singers, dancers & poets, exploring the intersection of ritual, performance & ecology by integrating art with the 4 seasons.
By returning performance to its origins of co-created ritual, we hope to weave together the metaphorical language of art with ecological awareness to deepen our connection and kinship with earth.
Our Mission
We believe there is a call to creative minds to respond to the ecological crisis. As the ecosystems begin to fail there isn’t a more important time to weave together ecological activism with the metaphorical language of art to stir audiences hearts & minds into positive action for a regenerative future.
We are advocates for natures rights, reciprocity, kinship, relationship to nature and social change.
By telling new stories of wholeness, interconnection, and hope, our project counters narratives of environmental destruction with those of renewal and possibility.
How we tend to our mission
We believe regeneration begins with relationship. Through collective rituals and participatory art, audiences experience what it means to nurture something larger than themselves. This shared experience of co-creation – whether through planting symbolic seeds, singing together, or reflecting on seasonal change – creates a mindset of stewardship and regeneration with the community and the land.
Healing the earth begins with reimagining our relationship to it. We hope to inspire active hope & belonging to cultivate deep reflections on how we live as creative custodians upon the Earth.
Not one thing is going to solve this crisis.We need multiple solutions & approaches, we need to reach across genre & disciplines to co-create the ideas that couldn’t have come into being without the provocations & dialogue of collaborative action.It’s the weaving together of art & science, factual & imaginable that will help us build new ideas & structures to find new ways of knowing & creating, moving towards a future where everything is interconnected.
Check out what our audience have to say about our Rituals
We gathered feedback from our audience to understand how our performances resonated with them. Watch this video to see how this work is necessary and relevant not from us but from our audience and community. Our rituals create connection, reflection, and a deeper relationship with nature.
This is a very unique co-created ritual. Something I had never seen before, it has all the elements I love. I enjoyed a lot and so grateful to be part of the ritual. I am looking forward to the next show
