Performances

These semi-improvised, intuitive performances have explored friction within the self and have resulted in a chaotic fusion of fact and fiction (memory, fantasy, reconstructed personal history) across past and present. They are intended to crack through the audience’s public layers and chisel at everyone’s conscious and subconscious memory and sense of self.
