The act of creating has always asked me to witness the self before offering up a new perspective on the ever evolving story I have been working to tell. Observing within is how the doors open to my daydreams, even during the deepest and darkest of nights. Once a notion presents I bring in the bits that bubble up to formulate the details, catalyzing inspiration into form. The process calls on wonder and aims to prove through that we all hold a capacity to be the director of our dreams. Sharing my art, whether it is a picture, a story, or a live performance, my hope is to open avenues of possibility. While each of the creative modalities that I play with carries a unique capacity to convey that hope, Dance as a practice holds a unique medicine that takes me further than any other form. Its capacity to hold the liminal space makes it my most sacred ritual. Allowing myself to move through space brings me to where the expression seeks me and where I feel completely free.
