Even When You Stand Still is an interdisciplinary work exploring home as an irrational and irrevocable condition that collapses time and place. How can one fill the gaps of things forgotten in old homelands, physical or abstract? What does it mean to be tied to these homelands? I am looking to excavate into the intimate depths of desire, identity, and ancestry, in the midst of grief and laceration. Story and sense and image and movement offer answers and ask questions simultaneously. Many generations reach for a shared truth, in perpetual search for grounding amidst disorientation. Is this grounding to be found in memory, the air, the body?
