I am deeply invested in the problems that arise inside agendas of being together. My curiosity surrounding togetherness has led me to working inside seemingly impossible spaces, where narratives of intimacy
are complex and unresolved, allowing for content to be emergent rather than determined as the body negotiates repetition, disruption, meaning and memory. My performance work departs from preciousness
and sentimentality in hopes of locating a more potent relevance for how we read and relate to constellations and the status of things over time. My concepts and structures at times dissolve each other, as the work simmers in contradiction. I am reaching for a heightened subtlety of experience by engaging sensation and
the referential with visual information driven by politics rather than aesthetics. I seek out the familiar
to let linger in proximity and eventual collaboration with unknown and unstable compounds. Language
drives my processes and often arrives on stage in various capacities, operating a certain slippage
or necessary misunderstanding crucial to the tangential network of translations. Constantly returning
to the erotics of things, the work exists out of bounds and off center, aligning itself to phenomenology and speculation rather than a single image. I favor meaning making rather than sense making, actively work with and position non-trained dancing artists alongside the same complex choreographic language and dramaturgy relegated to that training. My performance works move ideas around the room via bodies, sound, materials, language and architectures and do so by the dedication of queer and non-binary peoples driven by pleasure, shame, concern and mischief entangled in every detail.
