Convening Cultures. Reimagining Traditions.
Skyblue. Spectacular, interdisciplinary, and participatory, my work is inspired by opera, carnival, cabaret, and folklore, imagining new directions for traditional forms that meet the challenges of the digital age.
Land. I am inspired especially by the traditions of my Gaelic and Mennonite ancestors and the traditions of my Caribbean, African American, and Latin American family, friends, and neighbors — and I am influenced by the traditions of the peoples my ancestors encountered, lived among, and displaced.
Eros. My work develops through long-term community engagement and culminates large-scale performance and exhibition on stage, on the street, in airports, and on trains, as well as in intimate encounters in living rooms, front porches, backyards, classrooms, prisons, and crisis shelters.
My work also circulates in a digital multiverse through experimental, narrative, documentary and music video and sound recordings — many of which you will find here.
