"sub vid heap" is a visceral and compositional study on domination, shot a year after the birth of a first child. An exhausted ego and a needy id, the sensory and the lingual, desire and duty, horror and humility vie it out in a haunted hall. Captured at Headlands Center for the Arts, screams of a baby are muted out while the process of portraiture claims space for a body craving autonomy. Actions of pushing, vacuuming and rocking conjure the rickety bones of downtrodden ancestors, calling the laboring body from the periphery to the center, moving the rage through the body for joy to inhabit the space it vacates.

Director

A promise for outstanding regulatory conduct is called into question. A fire has been started, movement has gone on to reach multiple points of no return. A response to the new order of an all-encompassing yet undefined set of rules; a symbolic depiction of the year that changed a city forever. Water now must flow underground - hand in hand we stand.

Co-Director

HOW ARE WE is a collectively-created performance consisting of fifteen 90-second solos that respond to 10 prompts proposed by artists Emily Mast and Yehuda Duenyas.
