To sold out shows, Epiphany Productions Sonic Dance Theater presented Botany’s Breath at the Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park.
The Conservatory of Flowers and Kim Epifano’s Epiphany Productions Sonic Dance Theater presented “Botany’s Breath,” a site-specific contemporary dance work with live music and video held in the Conservatory of Flowers, a living museum of rare tropical plants that is the oldest public glass and wood Conservatory in the US. Utilizing the Victorian edifice as provocateur, stage, musical instrument, and projection screen, “Botany’s Breath” led the audience on a walking journey through the rooms of the Conservatory – each one a different, highly nuanced ecosystem – and out into the surrounding grounds, in an exploration of the spiritual, symbiotic relationship between plants and humans.
