ARTIST STATEMENT
<> practice <> process <> research <>
To honor the body.
To harness longing.
To unshackle from what no longer nourishes.
To uncover strangeness.
To listen closer to the bone.
To channel sensation into form.
To blur the line between thinking and dancing.
To imagine beyond the dominant culture.
To move into liberatory places.
To disrupt codified ways of thinking.
I am an activist formalist. This means that I think about subject matter through form. This also means that I interrogate the basis of form.
Queer, feminist, mother—through these identities, I understand
the sensation of simultaneously
fighting liberation and fighting for it.
