SERPENTINE will join creative forces with FAITH & THE MUSE and tour this fall in Europe! Tour dates will be announced soon. :)
:::SERPENTINE: TEMPLE DANCERS OF THE SERPENT MYTHOS:::
Serpentine is a dark tribal/butoh fusion bellydance duet founded in 2005 by Aradia and Lucretia*Renee. Presently, Aradia and Lucretia*Renee are co-founders, co-designers, co-choreographers of Serpentine; together they merge their passions of art and dark tribal belly dance in a unique exploration of self-expression and goddess devotion. Serpentine explores the ancient art of storytelling through spectacle and ritual; each performance is a living vivid painting. Along with writing unique choreography, each artist creates their own costumes, stage props, and fire dancing tools. From spring until fall of 2008, Serpentine welcomed Nagasita for the triple goddess rites unfolding with divine synchronicity.
In 2009, the rites of Serpentine open into a new aeon. As a transformative duet, Aradia & Lucretia*Renee explore the beauty and mysterious rituals of butoh: reinventing to birth the serpent mythos.
One of Serpentines missions from conception is to collaborate with different musicians, dancers, and artists. Through the creative expression and ritual honoring we become stronger supporting each others visions and pushing the envelope to create even the unimaginable… Serpentine has performed with talented artists/ musicians such as Cheb i Sabbah, Soriah, Azphodel, Jill Tracy, Paul Mercer, March Fourth, and many, many more.
We are joining creative forces with FAITH AND THE MUSE this fall, tour dates will be released very soon.
Serpentine also coordinates East Meets West, a community celebration of dark fusion belly dance. As the goddess is honored through ecstatic dance, our communities grow stronger. As we consecrate our bodies and the land on which we dance, we unite. Each year this event grows and attracts like-minded dancers and performers from across the states.
