My work is driven by a sense of experimentation and artistic cross-pollination and insists that the body is inherently wild and strange. My process excavates the ways in which our bodies are not contained but enmeshed in materials, processes, and histories. I layer somatic inquiry and theoretical investigations in a generative dissonance that questions perception and embraces multiplicity. My engagement with queer theories and improvisational forms is at the heart of my artistic practice. In particular, I am interested in the idea of “dis-orientation”—how to disorient ourselves from normative ways of thinking and being in the world. As a maker, I work with processes. I am interested in building shared practices, languages – a culture is formed within each process and extends over time. Creating a culture, a community. This is the ground from which the work springs.
