As an artist, I’ve done a lot of ruminating on how substances affect emotions, and how emotion manifests as movement. The struggle of being human is fraught with a desire to feel better, and we chase after many forms of feeling better.
This is a creative workshop inviting aerialists to play with improvisational movement imagined from ideas around addiction and stigma, and to consider with compassion how addiction manifests in all of us.
