CHOREOGRAPHY
This reimagining of Martha Graham’s Lamentation explores grief through the lens of trans embodiment. Originally choreographed in 1930, Graham’s solo used fabric and seated movement to express the physicality of mourning. Drawing from archival footage and inspired by the Lamentation Variations Project, this version retains key elements such as gesture, fabric, and stillness while reframing them through a trans perspective. Featuring music by Zoltán Kodály and transgender composer Sara Davis Buechner, the work interrogates how grief manifests across different identities and invites reflection on who has historically been granted space to express it.
