"Commissioned by the Institute of Contemporary Art San Francisco, Radial Ritual is a performance by acclaimed choreographer and artist Madeline Hollander to celebrate the ground breaking of Lily Kwong: EARTHSEED DOME."

The site-specific performance in Transamerica Redwood Park features six dancers, and "...the choreography draws inspiration from multiple scales: the rhythmic mechanistic movements of the 3D-printing arm, the motions of germination as redwood seeds unfold their roots, as well as traditional agricultural folk dances."

"Through its cyclical repetition, the performance becomes a ritual that connects ancient technologies with the new and reveals the synergies made possible by this interplay of material, form, and community action."

The dancers wear the Loretta Midi Dress in Vermillion.
