About: I’m facing what is for me an epic challenge: writing a solo epic. I’m looking forward to listening and learning from the questions other artists are asking. I’m looking forward to the landscape of PEC. I’m looking forward to space and time to begin cartographing this epic. And for my part I’m asking questions around why we do this work, and how we (especially as marginalized people) continue.
