“dancing in one spot, number 12” — ORIGINAL (2018)

Painting created with pigment powder and acrylic paint, using Blackpentecostal music and praise noise to shout, dance, on the surface.

“i have been thinking a lot about the concept of worlds (plural) in my work. this is meditated upon in a lot of the lonely letters and has been guiding a lot of the visual performance processes. one guide quote: “there is nothing new under the sun, but there are new suns” (octavia butler). tryna explore otherwise possibility. a meditative, collective, improvisational practice, a mysticism in and of the flesh.
