“From Where We Ascend/Wake” suggests we are in a place of ascension, perhaps physically, or some conscious state of being. In this place we are offered and confronted with choices that lead to utter possibilities that flutter into an ascending moment, like birds taking flight. It is a place where we shed our skins in order to expose the uncertain, embracing the new while recognizing what we have left behind in our wake.

When this title came to me I had such a visceral inner certainty about its significance, and began a journey of trying to demystify it.This collection of dances/films seek to be the recognition and expression of this feeling. Quite simply, the force behind our ascension/wakes and the power of our creation generates from the ties that bind us as people, friends, and collaborators.
