In Language Reversal: Move Past What We Know, Aaron Landsman,
Clarinda Mac Low, and I are in dialogue with guests from communities that span from the Lower East Side to Serbia, Australia and beyond, all of whom have been subject to political authoritarianism.
In March 2021, I investigated the choreographies of our every day with Melbourne-based artist Amrita Hepi. Through a virtual call and response, we considered how the shifting conditions of Black and Indigenous life lead us to reorganize our creative skill sets and move through uprisings towards utopias. Together, we found the dances embedded in our everyday to reveal remixed opportunities for intimacy, play, and maybe one day, progress.
