Half Sky Full is a solo dance work created by Austin Diaz through AMOC’s 2024 AiR Series. A love letter to abyss, to impermanence — this 45 minute work in progress is set to a collage of found music and original text, taking the viewer through a fragmented passage of loss and decreation. Hiraeth, a Welsh concept, is sewn deeply into the words and movement throughout. Half Sky Full is a reflection on resilience and our ability to reframe the world around us.

Hiraeth — (n.) a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was; the nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for the lost places of your past. It is nowhere and it is everywhere.
