Dodge
2016
When we were children, many of the lessons we were taught were meant to help us move forward, emotionally, into the people we become. Getting “hit” or “falling down” in life is a powerful tool to grow. Without these lessons we do not truly know the power in failure and defeat. Becoming aware of these actions helps one to see past them, embrace fear and the “fall”. ‘Dodge’ addresses these topics of childhood and losing—when you are not at your strongest points yet in life. The experiences we have in our youth can create a mindful state as we get older to not just dodge but rather to get hit with acceptance to grow into the next step forward. Go ahead—throw and be the fear.
Dodge was performed for Oak Cliff Speed Bump in 2016.
