PREVIEW ACT 2: OF BODY AND MIND

Or scroll down to learn more.

IAM: Of Body and Mind was inspired by the changes to our inner and outer lives brought on by the pandemic. Set in the human realm, Of Body and Mind explores our response to lockdown, isolation, fear and uncertainty.

IAM (pronounced ee-yam) from the Latin for “now” is a sweeping tale about perspective. Each of the 4 acts traces the path of Covid through a different material realm—molecular, human, earthly and universal. The first act, Dance of the Molecules focusses on the life cycle of the coronavirus and its reliance on human molecules to usher it into our cells and replicate it.

IAM is directed by Toronto-based artist and cell and molecular biologist Radha Chaddah

IAM: Of Body and Mind is presented by the Aga Khan Museum and Under 5 Studio, with support from the Government of Ontario.
