In the center of the keystone, an x-ray image of mycelium networks is displayed with a dark green backdrop. On the right and left sides, there are graphic frames of film negatives, with more x-ray images of plants. Top center there is a black rectangle with the title, Beneath Our Feet, written in all caps and in a light grey colour, along with, "Presented by Studio 58", also written in all caps. In between the words, 'By', and 'Studio', there is a graphic of the world map in white.

Beneath Our Feet

Live at Studio 58 in room A010
February 10-15, 2026

An original production created with and performed by fourth term students.

Smack dab in the middle of the rainforest, the Gunung Valley Field Centre is a remote research base in the Kalimantan region of Indonesia. Staffed with a small scientific team and onsite caretaker, we at the GVFC strive to study the natural world without a negative impact. And it’s going really, really well for us, actually.
