SDG 6 | The Story & Dance Behind Two-Story Lakes | Natasha Forrest

SDG Talks

What is a camera dance and how can it symbolize a shrinking lake?

Thanks for joining us for another episode of highlighting change makers and their inspirational work towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In this episode:

• How does Natasha’s camera dance highlight the impact of warming on two-story lakes and fish habitats?
• How does combining dance and camera choreography symbolize the freedom and restriction of movement?
• How is Wisconsin Water Week raising awareness about unique water structures and their importance?

Find out from Natasha Forrest - a Dance and Elementary Education student at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.

Natasha shares her innovative art piece, a camera dance that combines choreographed dancing with choreographed camera movements. Inspired by two-story lakes, which are coldwater lakes shrinking in the summer due to warming and deoxygenation, the dance aims to raise awareness about the shrinking habitat of fish.

The dance begins with expansive movements and camera angles to symbolize freedom and gradually becomes more constricted, reflecting the reduced space for fish. Natasha also emphasizes the importance of Wisconsin Water Week in raising awareness about unique water structures in the state.
