Fieldwork imagined Freshkills landfill as a monument to the labor embedded in its mountain of discarded waste. This performance work archived the choreographies of food production, industrial production, logistics and distribution production, and the scientific labor needed to transform the landfill to park. The piece was filmed in 360 video to include the park itself as a performer in the work: the park will not open to the public until 2030. 360 video enables viewers a virtual experience of the park as they
watch the dancers.
