This episode features Laressa Dickey answering a few questions posed to her by NPP colleague Darya Efrat. She talks about weirdness, aspects of her practice that are difficult to share, as well as the tension between aesthetic and somatic practices.

Laressa Dickey is a dance artist and writer whose recent projects explore the politics of care, the effects of state violence on the human body, and space junk. Her practice is grounded in somatics and draws on research and metaphors related to life science, including embryology, as departure points for artistic questions. Her work spans disciplines and modalities.
