Para- was originally performed in 2004 and re-invented in 2014 as a part of Skowhegan performs at Socrates Sculpture Park in Queens. In this iteration I collaborated with dancers nyx zierhut and Lollo Romanski in order to create movement in response to and in collaboration with artist Edward Schexnayder’s installation, Homeland 2014. Performers nyx zierhut and Lollo Romanski are both part of Lava, a self-proclaimed feminist acrobatic dance company known for feats that push the boundaries of dance, gravity and gender expectations.
