\u201cQuestions without answers must be asked very slowly.\u201d -Anne Michaels<\/p>\n
The most ambitious ambition of my work is to create moments of livability. I understand the world-at-hand (\u201cworld\u201d being a description of all matters affecting each other) as one that attempts to eradicate most ways of being that I care about. Survival right now is linked to things like producing, owning, individualism\/scarcity thinking, and competition. I do not want to survive through these modes. But dreaming otherwise is challenging since everything I\u2019ve been taught runs so bone deep. I seek liberation \u2013 an interdependent and as yet un-imagined state \u2013 through refusing to adhere to certain logics of power. Performance is a container for those attempts.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t think we can be \u201cfree\u201d but I think we can be \u201cfree-er.\u201d<\/p>\n
Since 2010 Disman has been making, thinking, and writing about performance art. Her solo works have been presented across so-called Canada, the U.S.A., Europe, and India.<\/p>\n
