Prokaryotes is a reach back towards the primordial reptilian body and a dive into the historical present. In this idiosyncratic meeting space, three dance artists with particularly archived histories and behaviors attend to things that usually stay invisible. There are three points of view, but neither is separate from the other, nor does one become the other: what is constituted in the work is multiplicity.
