Process

A striving toward radical humility fuels my production processes.

i am fascinated by the ways in which our perceptual organs compose, apprehend, and experience.

in the studio, i cleave, syncretize, and reckon.

An obsession with going deeper and further drives my work. i push speculative potentials. i embrace being critical AND complicit. i interrogate my ways of knowing. emphasize telling details. center unintended consequences. i question dance/performance values, and the field’s status quos. i engage in unwavering, embodied repurposing/s and emphatic re-imagining/s.

Artist Statement/s

i experience ideas/interactions passionately, creatively, physically, spiritually and analytically.

i relish sharing myself and the ideas that come through me.
