“We started with the idea of fairy tales as portals into queerness, transformation and the indulging of forbidden desires; a resistance to the numbing effects of normativity. Hoary is a practice of being in our bodies, of not knowing something but making something anyways.”
“Addressing site is an integral aspect of this practice; we create semi-fictional histories and sonic resonances in each location the work is researched, employing language, sound and vocal utterance as vibratory tools that give animacy and agency to place. This activates the audience’s potential for a sensory and imaginative attunement to their environment, creating new possibilities for our shared perception and behavior. Decentering empirical human concepts of knowledge, we disrupt our encultured nervous system responses and move beyond the shortcomings of late capitalist embodied experience by embracing ambiguity, fluidity, and the not yet known.”
