Happy Friday friends! 💛
This week we are honored to feature Mimi mimi ke who is such an expressive movement artist! We love her creativity in the air.
Mimi’s inspiring aerial story in her own words:
“I’m an aerial artist, teacher, and lifelong movement glutton. Movement is always with me, in or outside the studio. When I arrive in new places, I dance to recognize the space and me in it. I love to search for something or someone to interact with, usually a rope or other inanimate object.
This year, as a result of toxic exposure to sewage gas, my health and capacity took a crazy turn. A silver lining is that it gave me an ability to literally hear my body loudly and all its connective pathways, which forced me to restructure my relationship to aerial training and day-to-day life.
My practice leans into movement that is adaptive to my ever changing health parameters. I’m so grateful to have the ability to be in the air.
Aerial quite literally gives me more capacity to exist on the ground and develop a special way of navigating an invisible disability. I love ensemble work and the spontaneous magic of improvisation. At the moment I’m hungry for more collaboration, community and bold ways of expanding artistic expression.”
