Our Eternal Return to the River to Willapa Bay with subtitles
Performance in front of the visual artist studio, on the hillside in front of the main cottage.
Inspired by the migration of the Willapa Bay salmon across the estuaries of the Pacific Northwest, cosmologies scaling across the scientific to the personal and to folk traditions of the Willapa tribe, and from the many illuminating conversations with my fellow residents.
