HORSES & FOXES
This 40-minute immersive performance explores themes of matriarchal agency and transformation, presented live by three artists: Annie Hui-Hsin Hsieh (Sound Direction, Performer), Veronica Santiago Moniello (Movement Direction, Performer), and Heidi Wiren Kébé (Art Direction, Performer).
Drawing from the mythology of horses and foxes—emblems of strength, cunning, and control—the work examines how patriarchal societies have historically portrayed women as both powerful and perilous.
Set in Studio A at Pittsburgh’s WQED, HORSES & FOXES positions the audience in the round, using a dance cipher as a site of engagement. Through choreographed bodies, objects and live sound processing, the piece examines power thresholds: when it is given, how it is wielded, and when it fractures.
