About
Native
Green
When
choreographing
the
movement
for
Native
Green,
Cunningham
said
that
Megan
Walker

Bacon
he
divided
the
body
into
four
parts:
legs,
torso,
arms,
and
head.
Each
part
of
the
body
moves
in
sequential
order,
transforming
the
dancers
into
lanky,
bird-‐‑like

ends
as
the
dancers
pick
up
a
plastic
tube
that
had
previously
lain
at
the
back
of
the
stage,
and
cling
to
it
as

they
