"If we wish to Heal the Earth, we must allow ourselves to be Ridden by Nature."

The Film
Ridden by Nature is an ode to the natural world. Deeper still, it is an impassioned call for humanity to awaken to its connection to Mother Earth in this time of planetary crisis. This film is about opening people's eyes and hearts-especially those of children-to see themselves as caretakers of Nature, the source of life that supports us. If you believe, as I do, that this is a truly vital message, please read on and support this important campaign.

I began making this film ten years ago as an independent art project that came to life when I began to explore the ancient Japanese dance style of Butoh. Together with Butoh master Atsushi Takenouchi, I had the vision for a film that would capture live Butoh dance performances set in some of the world's most remote and extreme landscapes. The powerful scenes and images help to create a visceral experience of humanity's interconnectedness with the potent forces of nature. In this way, the dancers are channeling the pain of Mother Earth through an act of healing and love that is deeply moving for the viewer.

In an era of climate change and widespread ecological devastation, films like Ridden by Nature are necessary to awaken people to their role in this deepening crisis-as well as their power to reverse it. Now it is time to share this message with the world. Finally completed after a decade of work, we are moving forward with marketing and distribution.

As this is an independent feature and a true labor of love, we are reaching out to our community of like-minded supporters and visionaries to raise the necessary funds for marketing, press and publicity. We are dedicated to giving this film the greatest possible visibility and impact. With your help, we can bring Ridden by Nature to people around the world who can benefit from its heart-opening message.

Thank you for your support!
Kathi von Koerber

"Skin"
Does my skin separate me from the external world?
Magma, underground bedrock, surface soil, the atmosphere, the magnetosphere; the layers of the earth. Membrane of cells, internal organs, muscles, bones, and the body, a wave of emotion, a layer of energy, aura; the inner and outer layers of our body.
Perhaps there is no boundary between my environment and me. There is only the sensation from the many layers of skin. The life of the moment, the dance begins with this layered sensation.

"Skin"
皮が私と外界を分けているのか？
地球にもマグマ、地下岩盤、表土、空気の層、磁気の層がある。
体にも細胞の皮、内臓の皮、筋肉や骨の皮、そしてこの体表の皮、
空気で感ずる感情の波動、気やエネルギーの層、オーラの層。
何処からが私で此処からが外界など無いのかもしれない。
あるものはこの幾層にも重なった皮から感ずる感覚だけ。
その場に置かれた生命が、皮の感覚を頼りに踊り始める。

At Espace en Cours (Paris) - Jeudi 13 et vendredi 14 juin 2013
performance organized by ARTRACE

Archive 3 / 2013 July 3wks JINEN Butoh workshop at Spazio NU - site specific performance -

Photos from the archive of 3weeks summer residency JINEN Butoh workshop at Spazio NU in Pontedera/ Italy .
- Site specific performance -

Each moments, each dance had a deep and intimate meeting with the spaces, the memory of the place, sound of the ancient buildings, color of the air, emotion of them. Dance and dialogue together, feeling through the body, extend the time and space, transform and be itself.

performance at temple of Minerva Medica in Montefoscoli, at the palace and former medieval prison building in Vicopisano, and town square and market square in Pontedera city.
