Two
very powerful themes of nature that penetrate the human condition are the
Hart of the Wood and the World Tree. Originally this performance was
arranged around the singularity of the Tree, but the realization that there
was a necessary protagonist in the imaginal realm soon followed.
With dryads and the hunters, the presence of the Hart was a natural
progression. The two forces coming together in their nightly meeting was an
assemblage that flowed from someplace far deeper than simple psyche. The
Hart rose its antlers to the task in a picture of “The Sorcerer” from
Lascaux cave. It was only weeks after the choreography that the image of the
stag in the tree from pre-Roman Anatolia was presented to us.
Unless the folly of man succeeds in slaying the last forest, the Hart of the
wood will be out in the night, running between the worlds as we dream the
connection of the spiraling tree.
