FABE

Artist Statement

I am most interested in work that creates a space for a performer to be seen as extraordinarily human. My goal is to achieve real and raw emotion on stage that comes from pushing through exhaustion and emotional turmoil in a meditative state. The work is explosive, not pretty, feminine conscious, explores dry humor, is generationally specific, and unapologetic. I’m a leo, so who I am as a person is reflected heavily in my work.
