Greyness and Infinity uses observed microbial processes to develop blueprints for the emergence of a durational choreography for objects and performers, with audiences invited to come and go as they please. Borrowing poetics from microbial transformation and processes of mutualistic symbiosis, Greyness and Infinity makes visible the labour of the microbial world through mediated conversation and dancing action. It is a meditation on social togetherness, care, and sensitivity.
