Tend is one half of VICINITY DIPTYCH, and was developed in tandem with Jonathan Meyer’s project as though your body were right. These pieces were conceived as a performance diptych able to be experienced independently or as a double feature. Both works intend to significantly challenge the audience and simultaneously practice radical care for each attendee, inviting people into a safer space to delve into inherently uncomfortable but rewarding material.
