  • “What is a bioregion? A bioregion is a geographical area defined not by political boundaries but by ecological systems. It is smaller in scale than a biogeographical realm, but larger than an ecoregion or an ecosystem. On land, the most widely held bioregional framework is the biome or “ecozone” — a large community of plants and animals adapted to a specific climate found over a range of continents. There are 14 widely held biome types, mapped below with an overlay of the 185 bioregions.” Excerpt from oneearth.org

Marion Storm is a dance artist based in Sete/montpellier. Her projects have been recently presented at Center for Performance Research (New York), 3 bis f – lieu d’arts contemporains (Aix-en-Provence) and mas nyam nyam (catalunia) among others.

Storm’s writing has been published by The Operating System, Loam, and About Place Journal. She teaches intergenerational movement/sensing/attention workshops for everybody, and offers dance classes to dancers that mix her particular embodied practices that fortify the links between body and place.

Storm was the recipient of a Foundation for Contemporary Arts ‘Emergency Grant’ for her collaboratively built performance and symposium resistance fantasies: strategies for moving toward– and against– in 2019, and was awarded an ‘Artists in the City’ scholarship by Fondation Hermes in 2019-2021 for completion of the Master Exerce (Montpellier) in Choreographic Research & Performance.

Her dance & writing work on and with the planet is grounded in hydropoetics, & the sensuouness of transmission in performance (like–this is what it feels like to…).

Marion Storm began to choreograph and compose dance in 2010 at The New School with the guidance of Neil Greenberg, on Lenapehoking land, in New York City.
