Being in the proximity of, present to, seeing, feeling this explosive nature bomb to finish out 2021 left me awestruck and charged. Fiery molten lava creating new land. Reverence and Gratitude. Thank you Heidi and @carlosmm.photography for being such knowledgeable guides and stewards of the Hawaiian ecosystem. #powerofnature #volcano #eruption #hawaii (at Kilauela Volcano The Big Island Hawaii) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYUaxI4lTig/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Level Edge Encounter

Friday Evenings In June:

A series of Sited Performances at the East River

beginning at 6:30 pm

A practice of presence within a rapidly changing landscape

Bushwick Inlet Park

It is an activation, my form of prayer outside of a codified system, a petition to the immaterial, a showdown with fear and anxiety.

Excited to be dancing with these amazing musicians and sound artists

June 7th Shahzad Ismaily

June 14th Surprise Guest

June 21st Aaron Taylor Kuffner

June 28 Daniel Pencer

***********************************************

Performances coincide with a crowdfunding campaign to support projects about corporeal relationships to sites and environments and the elements found there. It is my first campaign of this sort. It supports my desire for participation within community through creative endeavors and experiences related to our bodies and their surroundings.

The day after hearing about Ko Murobushi’s death I came across this little bird while walking down a sidewalk in Brooklyn.  A suspended moment of transformation, how hauntingly beautiful. Ko would often talk of that moment in between, the embodied image of Pompeii, Icarus, one thing becoming another.  With his dance he would crawl into these suspended moments, haunted moments, and bring presence, whit and honesty.  A reminder that even in stillness things are always changing, and that the echo of a vibration can be felt.  My heart breaks open with gratitude for the time I got to spend with him and his dance.
