2. State of Play Festival: Audrey Johnson - For a Moment/No Longer

*For A Moment/No Longer* (working title) is a dance about letting go and staying. Breaking open and re-assembling. About turning towards each other, the necessity of heartbreak, and trusting the pulse as a rhythm to follow home. *For A Moment/No Longer* studies the physicality of moving from the heartbeat as resist/persist-ence practice through the act of breaking open. With pulse as downbeat, the work draws inspiration and reverence from queer Black feminist praxis, the canon of Black American spiritual jazz artists, and moves from a Love Ethic as theorized by bell hooks. The work is in conversation with mountains, tides, breath, earth, tree, fog, and other known and unknown forces.
