Artist Statement:
This sci-fi retelling of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) creation story reimagines Sky World as a futuristic utopia and Sky Woman as a brave astronaut and world-builder. When she learns that her planet is dying, Sky Woman volunteers to become the seed of the new world, an Earth covered in water. Produced using the new media technique known as machinima, She Falls For Ages boldly mixes ancient storytelling with science fiction to connect the deep past with the far future.
