Being free together
2016

Being free together ruminates on the state of polarization across the US and on a lecture by Ram Dass that shares the same name. The installation translates these feelings and teachings into works of ritual, metaphor, and transmutation. Although all works are formally different, they sometimes share similar materials. The four discrete pieces hold space for an underlying theme to blossom: the interconnectedness of all things.
