learning to see in the dark

2019-2022

 ‘learning to see in the dark’ is a solo study in undoing pain. It investigates how queerness and femininity are embedded in the body in a personal, historical, and social context. The work utilizes movement, text, sound, and vocalizations to explore how these embodiments influence both everyday and performative landscapes of womanhood. It is inspired by the forest, the spaces between the stars, forgotten trauma, the lessons we learn from lying, queer desire, self love, wind chimes, and the places we call home. This project is intertwined with personal and collective memories, voice recordings, and poetry. It honors femme power and the moments that make us feel brave.
