Of Desert and Sea is an emerging Aboriginal contemporary cultural dance company. Made up of young women, they represent over 6 language groups from across South Australia. Of Desert and Sea use traditional cultural elements to inform their contemporary practice, and use dance as a way of connecting with their culture. They have performed at a number of festival and events including WOMADelaide and Dance rites at the Sydney Opera House.

Of Desert and Sea Dance

In this dance theatre work, five millennials explore the meaning of beauty as Aboriginal women when they return to country and community and gain insight into their identity and spiritual connection to land. Their journey of discovery – involving distressing historical truths, pride and empowerment – offers an intimate reflection on kinship and cultural belonging expressed through individual perspectives.
