Recent projects include Endurance Performance Propositions, where I take cultural artifacts and re-perform them under conditions of #stress to show what they reveal.

Like here, when I re-created #britneyspears #instagram dances.

Also upcoming: Poem of E.L., investigating the last known movements, captured by elevator surveillance, of a woman hours before her death in a downtown #LA hotel water tank in 2013.

Since 2015, I've worked like a somatic detective with her movement, producing video/dance that undermines the capitalist exploitation of her story, the casual misogyny of how she’s read, the reductive analyses to which people default so easily when faced with a mystery.
