A service based performance experience fulfilling a socially requisite and biologically exigent allogrooming need accompanied with self-care devised movement distractions focused to organize the nervous system, resolve conflicts, and contemplate power differentials all in the motile architecture of a possible post-pandemic convalescence environment.
Embodiment means that we have power in the world. Embodiment means that we are vulnerable to each other.
The body is the emergence of a trillion cells. The nation is the emergence of a million bodies.
If the cellular could speak to the societal, what would it say?
It might look like this:
Four people entering into a room within a room, a micro-theater, a puppet theater.
Watching the cells of the body move like the murmuration of starlings.
A creature that would live on such a landscape, learning to crawl, learning to fly.
Calling it home.
These two works are being conceived as a performance diptych able to be viewed independently or as a double feature. They are currently in development at Khecari’s HQ3 and are slated to be in residence at Hambidge, Centrum, and 6018 | North.
