LAMINARIA is a Folk Horror Chamber Suite evoking images of an underwater shadow ghost emerging from the deep. Laminaria is the Latin word for kelp which is used medicinally to induce labor in people seeking abortion. This hauntingly provocative music and dance piece serves as a metaphor for the cycle of birth and death and explores the need to break free from the demons confining our bodies even in contemporary society.
