The Balance of Magic
“What if audiences did a little more clowning around?”
The Balance of Magic is an experimental interrogation of how performance and Egyptian mythology can meet in modern-day London. Using clowning and improvisation, the audience is asked to play as an actor might in rehearsal, opening themselves up to the oddities of embodied imagination.
MFA Works
Pyramid vs Pyramid
A juxtaposition of liveness. One set of players was asked to build a pyramid from items presented to them. The other was asked to find the treasure within the virtual pyramid. The catch? They race each other to finish first.
Arabian Nights
A piece exploring affect and aesthetic. What does it mean for me as a person of color and a woman to depict myself as mostly a faceless figure on screen in a revelatory scenario?
Feathering the Soul
A deeply personal piece juxtaposing the 42 laws of Maat with my own personal confessions.
I Think I Love You…
The counterpart structure to “Feathering the Soul.” A conversation about whether one should be wary of this heart or aware of its delicacy.
