The Tests of the Sea is an experiment in shared autoethnography conducted by six dancers and a facilitator through a collective reflection on individual stories of loss. The process entailed sourcing an experience or event from each participant's life to use as the primary somatic guide in a series of embodied and dialogic explorations with choreographic outcomes.
