One year ago today I released my film This Ain't A Eulogy: A Ritual for Re-Membering. It began as a live performance ritual at La Mama’s Squirts in 2015, and has since been shared dozens of times in classrooms, living rooms, conferences, public spaces, theater stages, galleries, and fairs in iterations of film, live performance, and site-specific installation. This work has deepened my commitment and creative rigor to do ritual performance with integrity. It is my love letter for hearts that ache over the incessant incidents of state sanctioned violence; it is my balm to help process the grief that comes from irreversible loss; and it is my offering for how we transform and heal from the conditions that make a culture of disposability possible.
To honor this milestone occasion I am selling high resolution still images of the film. These are limited edition archival pigment prints and can be exclusively viewed on Curatious. A portion of the profits will be donated to resource organizations and groups that provide support to Black families that have been directly impacted by state-sanctioned violence.
