Residue ii @ WestFest – Kind of feels like butoh Mulholland Drive? Iterating on its themes, on previous Residue, and on itself, a site-responsive work made specifically for the Westbeth flea market.

Residue @ 98 Release – A butoh-ish performance art installation that views the act of making performance as sculptural, and what's left behind as an ongoing performance in and of itself. The piece invokes an impulsive, reactive space and approaches "release" through questions about meditative states and visceral experience.

Production History:
2023 — WestFest Dance Festival (NY)
2023 — 98 Release, 98 Art Collective @ DCTV (NY)
