Note: strikethrough ’21 is about one's walkabout with the double-life and the space inside translation before it materializes. Can language erase our memories as easily as filling them? What do words mean when we scatter them and sparingly pick up the pieces? On that lonely tour through not-knowing, where does dance enliven what it means to know?

[Two versions of strikethrough ’21 were created, one is an animation film that premiered online as part of SAFEhouse Arts Resident Artist Workshop (RAW) Digital Showcase in April 2021. The film was developed under the mentorship of the Mark Foehringer Dance Project | SF Emerging Choreographers Forum. The other version is a live performance installation that incorporates the film in the form of a projection. It premiered at 145 Eddy Street, San Francisco, CA as part of SAFEhouse Arts RAW Live Showcase in July 2021.]
