Artist Statement

Do You Wonder How People Curve, Flip, Or Groove? What Makes Boys and Girls Dance? How Do It Make Them Feel? Happy? Sad? Relieved? How Will Ever Know Unless We Listen To Their Steps As They Move. I Feel It’s Natural To Connect To A Song And To Have A Certain Movement To The Rhythm. As The Black Culture Develops It’s More A Purpose To The Dances Created In Today’s Society.  To Stop The Violence And Advocate For More Black Projects. Go Dance!

We do this by using art processes to engage in dialogue, bride-building, and problem-solving.
