The Moth Project Presents MUSIC/PICTURES/WORDS
David Attenborough meets Laurie Anderson in The MOTH PROJECT, a new production from Peter Kiesewalter, Grammy-nominated creator of the East Village Opera Company ("Highbrow and brilliant!" - New York Magazine). Blending music, family history and moth lore, The MOTH PROJECT brings art and science together in entirely original and unexpected ways.
Peter Kiesewalter (keyboard) and Whitney La Grange (violin) perform before a large screen displaying a stunning visual tour of moths and the fascinating world they inhabit. Using macro photography, slow motion video and dynamic motion graphics, these images are projected over the performers -- enveloping them and transporting them -- along with the audience -- into a strange and remarkable world.
"Thank you, Peter, for amplifying the messages of reciprocity. I like to
think of people seeing the world in a new way with the music and images
you've created." -- Robin Wall Kimmerer, bestselling author of "Braiding
Sweetgrass," recent MacArtur Fellow, and collaborator (lyrics,
narration) on Reciprocity from The MOTH PROJECT debut album (link to
"Reciprocity" filmed at MCM Stages January 2023):
