I make Events that go beyond the visual realm, choreographing movements that turn the audience into an explorer of a world that is active and becoming—as a set of unfolding relationships—in a way that they have not before. 

I have chosen the ongoing active transformation of the world as my lab. Our experience of the world is fluid, landscapes change and have no boundaries, water moves between materials, rocks partition – together, they make space and choreograph us. We are moving-sensing bodies, in an incomplete transitional space. 

I investigate the architecture within the environments of moving: nature and weather patterns, urban spaces and transitional routines, perception of the environment and what is occurring. I have explored movement=time=duration=events=emergence through line as movement, materiality as event, consequences of movement, acoustics of objects, the choreographic object, sound as location. Perception has become an active agency in the making, unfolding the perceptive nature of the work’s being and becoming. I have learned from Erin Manning, Tim Ingold, Brian Massumi, among others. Massumi, talks about the “occurrent arts”, practices that are relational and event-oriented, and places them in activist philosophy: “Activist Philosophy always begins in movement and never stops moving. It arises from the subject-object relation, where movement is primary to form, subject and object. There is neither object, nor subject: there is only event.”

My type of research-based work requires an environment that is alive and allows for agencies to be active and continuously making. It seeks a culture that is deeply based in the living, relationships, community, improvisation and active processes of thinking-making.
