37-minute ensemble work

Space Cadet (2021)

It is radical imagination. It is a space walk. It is spidering and it is futuring. It is mourning and it is inviting those we have lost to join us in our bodies, in our space, and in our journey. It is holding one another through witnessing when touch is unavailable. It is turning internal landscapes outward.
