Bending Over Back Words (installation/poetry/performance)

Archival evidence from this installation is no longer in my possession, for I invited each viewer to dismantle and take all the materials, including a totem, salt, grebe bones, coyote bones, pronghorn bones, cow bones, mirror shards, phragmites reeds, 'no trespassing' signs, barbed wire, twine, thread, plastic, cloth, and my human hair. A handful of objects may still be in Vermont, one or two in New York, Pennsylvania, Utah, and California. Beyond that, only the wind knows.

1/11 pilgrimage (poetry/site-specific installation/collaborative performance)

I enlisted the help of 11 women of various disciplines and from all over the world to act as inukshuks, modified totems, during my pilgrimage around the south shore of The Great Salt Lake. Each woman contributed part of the whole, while I acted as both carrier and creator, installing their offerings at 11 predetermined points around the Lake while simultaneously creating my own. Some of the women were physically present, others thousands of miles away, but energetically present. The journey could not have been completed were it not for the work of my courageous, generous collaborators.
