“The Uncanny Godwit”, is an explorative performance highlighting the urgent consequences of environmental neglect. Focusing on the endangered Black-tailed Godwit, which struggles to find a home in the drained Dutch wetlands, the performance imagines a surreal scenario: instead of humans restoring the environment, the Godwit must start adapting to human life to survive. 

This series explores the absurdity and tragedy of expecting our environment to adapt to human demands.
