Uk’u’x Ulew is a 60-minute multisensorial Maya dance-ritual. Its interactive choreography provokes embodied reflection on the environmental/political/spiritual dimensions of our planetary crisis—stressing human complicity while restoring reciprocity with our ecological matrix, or Uk’u’x Ulew. A multidisciplinary, contemporary dance work performed with live music, Uk’u’x Ulew was created collectively by Sotz’il’s nine Maya dancer-musicians. Performed indoors or out, Uk’u’x Ulew is adaptable to any setting, and is available for performances, workshops, and discussions. Estimated artist fee: for information on artist fees, please contact the tour coordinator.
