The Living Lakes is a collaborative dance-theatre performance by Anita Gonzalez and Joel Valentin-Martinez about Black/Native/Latino migrations along the Midwestern Great Lakes, with music from composer Jonathan Girling. During the production's Michigan residency, I worked with video artist Will Simpson to design both procedural and recorded video for projection onto the performers and backdrop.
