inbetween Kwimiak, blue | Emily Johnson

This is a dance that is listened to and viewed through four images. They are slow, the images. But then again we are traversing more than a hundred years. I am often teleporting the past to the present in what I make. And we are very suddenly in an inbetween. I welcome you to listen. To imagine with me a way to emerge and begin again and to view as you wish – with intense looking, or restful witnessing.

I think of the ground when I do this dance. And I think of my grandmas. And I think of yours.
