“Dimensions.”
To me, Drag is fully-integrated performance art.
It is multi-dimensional self-expression, story-telling, character-building, and costume-design of the highest order.
Around my way.
In this project, I seek out in my neighborhood what Talib Kweli wrote of his:
“…this is a legacy and we a part of that, the ‘hood is where my heart is at, catch me around my way.”
The blue bus is callin’ us
Driver, where you taking us?
The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived
And then he paid a visit to his brother
And then he, he walked on down the hallway
And he came to a door
And he looked inside
“Father?”
“Yes, son?”
“I want to kill you”
“Mother, I want to…”

“Sabbath for the Forest.”
For 2 years, I sought refuge from the cruelty of Arkansans in the beauty along the Arkansas River.
