Illusion of Abundance

Begun in 2022, Illusion of Abundance (IOA) is a grassroots racial, social and climate justice project. It exposes a climate and culture in crisis due to the declining Great Salt Lake. IOA Illuminates the historical erasure of the natural world and indigenous knowledge systems that hold innovative and necessary concepts available for saving our climate holistically. Through dance, prose, intertribal interviews and song, research, and stunning cinematography of Utah’s waterways and the nature it supports, IOA immerses you in the possibility of positive change and building paradigms to include underrepresented voices in stewardship, artistry and decision making around natural resources, land use, and climate.
