Each of the four performances that comprise “Unbind this book, Unstitch this body” are an opening: openings in my body, openings in time, and openings across archives. Threading through these openings are questions about how to hold space for and with the past. As people, places, moments, and objects accumulate and come into contact with one another over the course of these performances, they create their own weight, catching at the edges of each opening and gesturing to the kinds of transformations that this touch can allow.
