1 Degree Celsius (2025)

Through her signature electrifying movement style, pulsating music and dynamic light design, Sung Im Her | Her Project’s exhilarating new production 1 Degree Celsius invites us to consider the question: How can art spark action in the face of the climate crisis? 


Featuring seven dancers, 1 Degree Celsius (research title: The Breath Factory) looks at the topic of climate change and the effects it is having on the environment. As with all Her’s work, music and light form an essential and innovative character in the production. A new musical score has been created using data collected from rising atmospheric temperatures, and the lighting design is coordinated to the rising temperature of the earth.
