Film Synopsis
Embodied Landscapes is a short film that blurs the boundaries between dance, sculpture, drawing, and environment. Created by Minnesota artists Jessalyn Finch, Mary Mailand Schlichting, and Laura Sukowatey, the film follows a wanderer through interior worlds made visible. Guided by an otherworldly presence through landscapes of memory, belief, distortion, and release.
Crafted entirely by a three-women creative team, Embodied Landscapes is an excavation of what lies beneath the surface of the self. Through the film’s immersive visual language, each stage becomes an act of feeling, shedding, and moving deeper. What emerges is a study in transformation: part ritual, part confrontation, part rebirth.
