“I think of our bodies as EVERYTHING: our bodies are culture, history, present, and future, all at once. Out of respect for and trust in our bodies and collective memories, I give equal weight to story and image, to movement and stillness, to what I imagine and to what I do not know” (Johnson, 112).

This is a work about expelling that which does not serve you. Be it: people, lovers, ideologies.. There could be vomit. There could also be tears. There will be release. There has to be.

This is a work about inviting the spirit into the body. Embracing the spirit with the body. And, praying the spirit remember the body.
