The piece Tethered and Unbound, For Us and Our Souls are Beyond an Infinite moment explores the emotional fluidity and stagnation felt by having a dependency, connection, or an attachment. These places, people, objects, ideas, and emotions that we attach to become an extension of ourselves, enlaced in our identities.

The activation and performance of Tethered and Unbound is the dance of the secret third thing, a representation of the release of one thing before another is found and consumed. The past tugging at your body as you fight to find something new to fill your time, to give you peace, to love, and to love you, to fulfill you. The messy entanglement that are your past attachments and your present ones. They never untether, staying bound forever. Woven into your sleeve, because that is where you wear your heart.
