UpRooted Dance presents "Untethered & Unseen: The Mysterious Life of Hilma af Klint," at Glen Echo Park from May 2-4, 2024. In this experiential and participatory performance, audiences will be guided through tableau moments from Swedish Artist Hilma af Klint's (1862-1944) life as a spiritual medium and powerhouse female artist and founder of the abstract art movement. Her story, largely unknown and untold, is still unfolding today. Hilma af Klint was a pioneer – a female force in a male dominated modern art world, paving the way for many other abstract artists including Kandinsky, Malevich, and Mondrian. 

Audiences will be immersed in dance and interdisciplinary storytelling with choreography by Keira Hart-Mendoza and dancers; original musical composition and performance by Robin Ghertner; and video by Nitsan Scharf and Chandler Bramstedt.
