object permanence2022
object permanence is an exploration of Kayla's visibility - or lack thereof - as rural, autistic, adhd, artist, and woman in our current culture of perpetual display. Serving as choreographer, editor, dancer and cinematographer in this work Kayla grants herself agency, playing with the tension of making the invisible visible and vice versa inviting reflection on visibility when it is equated with value.
object permanence takes form as a screendance short film or multi channel video installation accompanied by durational improvised performance. object permanence is available for screenings and installation. Contact Kayla to arrange. CREATIVE TEAM
