underfoot

A new creation exploring the renewal of life through the lens of decomposition.

Watch your step! You never know who could be crawling underneath… With Underfoot, Abby Neuberger and Luca Bernini invite us to get to know the tiny creatures who are constantly gnawing at and recreating the earth beneath our feet. In this creation, worms, bacteria, and various decomposing agents will lead us in a joyous exploration of our surrounding environment, the processes of transforming matter, and our relationship to the untamable cycle of life and “death”.
