“we are built in water” is a performance for video with an original sound score, enacted inside a 94 x 60-inch vinyl bag—conceived simultaneously as womb and body bag. The performance unfolds, navigating the thresholds between presence and absence, becoming and unbecoming. It is a meditation on the unseen spaces that we inhabit before birth and after death—unknowable realms that bracket our existence. In this suspended state, the body becomes both container and contained, a fluid gesture through time, memory, and the porous edges of being.

Performed at Cape May, NJ, in 2019, 3;00 excerpts,  accompanied by the earth, sea, and fog. To view the video in its entirety, click here.
