Sea Dijk. Amsterdam, Netherlands. 2014

Directed by May Joseph.

Island Cities are performative environments. Living in one as the sea rises is an unsettling dialogue with the sea. Amsterdam’s historic management of the Amstel river and the North Sea is an imaginative instance of how island cities and a water bound urbanism can evolve. In Sea Dike, Harmattan collaborated with performers from Amsterdam to create a piece about sea dikes, bridges, and coastal cities learning from each other.
