Maybe it is: something about an expanded body something about eighteen minutes something about a collective text something about theContinue reading “Weld residency cont.”

(This post is a chance to articulate my intention(s) for the periods I will be working at Weld during September/October.) This residency is… a chance to submerge myself in a few things I’ve left simmering on the back burner over the last year and a half. a chance to bring three strands/facets of my research together to coexist and reconnect;Continue reading “Weld residency: A chance to…”
