That Wilderness of Glass: What Others Saw Resembles Nothing That is Ours

  • A woman with black feathers beneath her eyes stares at the camera. She is enveloped by a fabric of various shades of green. There appears to be another person wrapped in the fabric with her.
  • A person with black and white makeup across their face sleeps on a blue sofa under cool light.
  • A group of three people in black clothing gather around a body wrapped in netting. Two feet protrude from the netting.
  • A woman dressed in black kneels on the ground holding a ratty, misshapen puppet before her and two other people, who are also on the floor and dressed in black.
  • A performer in black stands barefoot on a platform, holding a ragged, stuffed doll by its head.
  • A man kneels on a small wooden platform on all fours, with a panicked expression on his face.
  • A woman stands on a platform with her back to the audience. A man lies on his back on the platform in front of her. Three hanging panels of fabric behind them are lit by stark blue light.
  • Three people dressed in black lay on top of each other in a heap. Behind them, the ragged form of a doll hangs from a stick.
  • A man lies on his back in a pool of blue light, screaming. Two women lay their bodies on top of him.
  • Close-up of a person's face with black and white makeup smeared across their eyes and their mouth open. A woman in very close proximity peers closely at the open mouth.
  • A person in a black dress sits on a blue couch. A woman, also in black, kneels before them and touches their knee with her hand.
  • A man lounges on a sofa in a pool of red light. His face is covered in white makeup and he appears to be sad.
  • Under a pool of red light, a man lounges on a couch. Rising above the arm of the couch behind him, a person with black gloves and a line of black makeup across their face stares at the man.
  • A man with white makeup on his face stands holding a woman wrapped in a white sheet. The two stare at each other.
  • A woman stands on a platform with a huge length of light green fabric wrapping her. The fabric extends on her right and left side. She stares ahead.
  • Two men peer over the back of a couch, smiling and laughing.
  • A person in a black sleeveless dress and black gloves lays on a blanket of netting, propping their chin on their hand.
  • A man and woman in black sit on a blue couch. The woman cradles a ragged, dirty stuffed doll. She speaks to a person laying on the floor before her.
  • Under red light, a person extends their arms while standing on a platform covered in a large net. Two people are walking around the platform.
  • A man's head is wrapped at the neck in a length of white sheet hanging vertically from the ceiling. The head and sheet are bathed in blue light.
  • A man stands in silhouette, with his body facing right, shrouded by darkness except for two beams of light pointing at him.
  • Close-up of a woman's face: she has black and teal feathers beneath her eyes and she hugs a ragged, stuffed doll.
  • A barefoot man sits on the edge of a platform, hugging a large net which is draped around his shoulders. He appears worried.
  • Upstage, a man sits on a platform with a large net draped over his shoulders. Downstage (and out of focus) a woman sits on the ground cradling a ragged stuffed doll figure.
