Description

Having survived Earth’s abrupt shift to an era of precarious climate, a multispecies community gather in the blasted ruins of modernity to find new ways of living together. Working together to carve out a new world from the smoldering remains of the old. Working together to forge enduring forms of sharing and survival. Working together to revive this land, this land, once a place of order and control. Humans, animals, birds, plants, moss, and fungi gathering around a shared hope. A hope in the life that remains. A hope in the resurgence of life stretched thin around this rock, painting its surface blue and green as it spins wildly in the vast blackness. Refuge for Resurgence is a multi-species banquet set after the end of the world. Centered around a majestic oak table, the scene lays bare a conversation between the paralysis of fear and the audacity of hope.
