TROPOSPHERE

Dorothy in hell created a place for herself forcing others into her own abundance, the abundance of The First Church Of The estra-Terrestial. Out of the blackhole of a non-existent past she has mythologized herself and made herself a new past, present and future one with a need to be "Extra-Extra".

"Violent Abundance"

In making my church I realized that I had fallen in love with the concept of violence, not in the way most people would think about it but instead from the perspective of existence. A biological creature exerts violence on it's surroundings trough living. Violence in this case is the affect you have by merely existing you change your surroundings trough violence. I already knew i wanted to confront the audience with abundance but now I had realized the violence of that. just as my medicine violently creates my body I had to violently create my surroundings trough re-contextualizing found objects, dragging them into my world they became part of me my body becoming the space as I filled it not only with physical items but with music and performance. each movement of my performance heat would dissipate and eventually contribute to the heat death of the universe, this is "Violent Abundance."
