Catherine McKay

Cat McKay is a yoga teacher, dancer, video and performance artist, permaculturalist and mother. Cat lives and works at PEACE Farm which stands for Permaculture, Education, Art, Community, Enterprise) in Australia's Yarra Valley. Over the last few years Cat has directed and performed in a collaborative immersive multimedia dance project called Moving Landscapes, a body response to the destruction of the tall trees and ancient rainforests close to her home. This has been a journey of connection, love and loss, through the five stages of grief, to a gentle resolution and call to action. As a moving meditation on the relationship between humans and nature, this project provides a way to move through our collective grief to a place of connection and hope.
