In a vibrant, holistic choreography, a sea creature explores its surroundings, a giant aquarium decoration. An underwater ballet in Lyon’s Musée des Confluences!

A sea creature loosely based on Nudibranchia, also called a sea slug, has made a home in a giant aquarium decoration in the lobby of Lyon’s Musée des Confluences. This alien creature gently sways in a dance composed of a few of dance history’s basic steps: Merce Cunningham triplets, José Limon drops, and Martha Graham contractions.
