"Karen Kaeja's gorgeous Wedding Threads, a lush piece about mother-daughter relationships" -- Guelph Contemporary Dance Festival, May and End of May Newsletters by Marie Davis Zimmerman

Part of the Site Specific Series presented by the Guelph Contemporary Dance Festival, this glorious intergenerational cast of six women and five youth including Karen's daughter Mika, return to a landscape with luscious imagery that captures the hearts of many.
