I am bringing my new solo show “Where Is The Line?” to @breakinconvention this year to open the festival on the main stage on Friday 1st May. This piece explores my questions, seeming contradictions, joyful resistance and aims to integrate all parts as I walk on life’s delicate tightrope with as much integrity, resilience, truth and bravery as I can muster.Thank you to @birdgangltd programme Hatchwork that allowed for this idea to be birthed and explored. Honestly, I wanted to develop this piece further before showing up LARGE SCALE BABY but the universe has other plans, and I am but a conduit. I hope you can come along, and dive into my world for 15 minutes. ✨ 🪄 🔮 ❤️‍🔥 Here’s to doing the thing. Grateful to the people that have been really showing up and holding me down lately. 🏠 🙏 🫂 🤲 #truth #walkingtheline #balance #art #newwork 📸 PS this is a still from glorious footage by @fi_silverthorn taken at @stanleyarts.uk by @shortbreadthebreaker
