“This is an invitation into the paradoxical, playful and perplexing character of Wisdom, a place where our ideas of reality can shatter…”
I Remember (You) Changing
This performance is a prayerful exhortation directed to multiple people at once. It is an attempt to communicate at the edges of language. The work draws from multiple sources, including a strange story of a talking donkey in the Bible. In this story, the she-donkey is more spiritually awake than the human prophet.
“Her attention to minutiae, finding God glimpsing through life's lattice, kneading it like bread over and over in her body, births the unexpected. A non-judgemental, innocent experiencing of the other, asking us to question how we perceive.” Kait Dron
“White’s work pulls to the forefront those moments where familiarity is split open to make way for an unimaginable reality to break through. God here is a surprise, an intrusive, confusing bringer of clarity, compelling us to empty our preconceptions of reality, asking us to trust and be changed in the face of the impossible.” Kait Dron
