With my body as first site of exploration and primary material, my human-as-animal nature listens through all senses and follows what arises. Here, the elements and landscape of place are experienced outside and in, giving rise to movements that form, shapeshift, dissolve, and transform. As a dance emerges within the interrelationship of the living world, it becomes an inquiry into the ways in which human meaning-making perceives and attempts to define its own aliveness.

My work is an experimentation of movement, senses, language, and perception. I research, gather, create, juxtapose, pull-apart, destroy, and live in the spaces between. And the same is happening to and with me by the world in which I live. Shaped-by and shaping. Embodied-by and dissolved through. Formed and formlessness-ing.

There is a slowing down, a silence, and a simplicity in the ways that I approach my work. The mountains and reservoir of my home teach me about body and earth as substantive, organismic processes through time. The seasonality of this region is an invitation and a direction. Those with whom I collaborate ask me to push the edges of my understanding, all the while deepening my belonging to lineages of making and being made.
