every animal knows when something is wrong, 2023. Performance on video, 18:05.
There are variations of myth in the Caribbean, such as that of the Flying Africans, that salt weighs the blood down and prevents the body from escape. In Wiccan ritual, forming a salt circle around oneself is a protective measure against external forces. As such, salt becomes an apt material for limbo-like experience of diaspora, living in a not-quite-state between the known and unknown. Filmed on the foundations of a demolished house on Cazabon Lane, the performance resulted from a realization made during an artist residency in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad.
