SCENIC DESIGN: Each piece, each topic demands its very own spatial manifestation. I am equally interested in sit-down performances, creating entire worlds on stage, and in interactive theatre, with explorations around variable audience proximities, such as in "adam-mah", "Midsummer Dissected", "Traces of the Enmeshment", and "CORE", for example. All my works are contemplations on social constructs and meant to ignite conversation around topics such as interpersonal relationships, violence, gender, mental illness and normativity, freedom, surveillance, racism, sexism, environmental pollution, neglect, apathy, romanticization/distortion, perspective, love, mysoginy, technologization, digitization, attention, effortlessness, water, animism, identity, friendship, family, psychology, home, body image, genetic engineering, and many, many more. I love working collaboratively as much as I do on my own, enjoying the distinct characteristics and processes of each.
I design and build.

"GESTURES OF LOVE"
SEPTEMBER 2023
This performance concept focuses on a simple white and intimate set design that foregrounds the vulnerability of love and its foundation in relationship to the self. Floor and wall performance areas are defined by the throw vectores of the projector and the video concept features projected poetic and academic writings overlapping interactions of the performer with their multiple selves.
