'to love the rise/ pt. 2' ^deconstructed^ are film + virtual zine expressions of our virtual process- of what being in practice looks like, feels like, WAS for us in April 2020, within the container of developing project 'to love the rise/ pt. 2' - a dance exploring conscious femininity, growth mania, liminal space and transformation. Emerging on a different imaginative plane- an apocalyptic world where only we remain- a new utopia and all her elements are rebuilt by our collective. We offer an anti-capitalist mindset and alternative order, posing that our world is made by us, by us all- through protest, imagining and action.
