This chamber ensemble, including Shyu as composer/librettist/vocalist/multi-instrumentalist plus women and nonbinary vocalist-instrumentalists who double as choir, will use choreographed movements to express how overcoming barrenness in both land and bodies are intertwined. Fertile Land, Fertile Body explores themes of motherhood and loss, as well as the effects of man-made climate change.
