I am a Masters of Fine Arts (Distinction) from the Architectural Association School of Architecture. I devise and direct Dadaist theatre, poetry and screen-prints extending domestic cartographies as micropolitical forms of play.
Every scenography that I create, the contexts that I have deal with, each and every experimental piece that I craft finds itself under the larger umbrella that I have deemed as ‘Devised Domesticities’. I research and articulate domesticities to performatively present them as biopolitical transgressions. Through the forms of common, natural or real behaviour I reiterate contexts that I posit myself in, as interpersonal and somatic movements.
The unwritten dialectics of worldliness amuse me. They fill me with a sense of interior restlessness, and I am constantly marginally obeying a temptation to blaspheme: I want to contest them, go beyond them, or rather confront them with my own experience which is itself determined by a larger collective experience. These dialectics of social sacraments expressed through acts of everyday transgression; a vicarious love speaking out through a pragmatic love is the essence of my Poetic Plays.
I as an artist bring forth narratives that remind us that we all pick our noses, we all practice presentations, speeches and debates in our respective showers, we all behave, we are all theatrical, animate, spontaneous, vulgar, raw and utterly beautiful. My intentionality is to successfully reiterate to ourselves that we have a rhetoric more primal to us than our larger social dramaturgies, and it is important for us to realize and harmonize both of them.
I spread the coke
Onto the piece of sourdough.
I was out of marmalade.
My eyes started watering.
I crawled.
I howled.
I growled.
I danced.
I cried.
I laughed.
I have no idea
What I did.
How I did it.
Why I did it.
I washed up.
And wiped my ass.
I knew I wanted to write.
Whether I wanted to be
A writer or not,
That is a different thing.
But I wanted to write.
I do not want to be good.
Nor do I wish to be brilliant.
I just want to be true. Because that is bottomless.
