Description:

Penumbra

Description:

Penumbra let my more turbulent selves burble to the surface: speaking intoxicating shades of darkness, asking what happens when you lose control of what you are saying and violence begins to live swinging alongside moments of beauty. An intimate dissection of my mind’s wiring, two selves meditate on the rituals and anatomy of a relationship, wholly human, made with violence and care. The work purifies without offering answers, leaving space for light to penetrate shadows and shape new forms.
