"Dancing up the Storm" by Becca Lavin

Dancing up the Storm came about in what was meant to be a ‘play’ session in my studio. One in which the artist (Moi) leaves everything worrisome or constraining behind with no one and no thing in mind. A literal stripping off of the straight jacket named ‘production’. The collage pieces are from torn pieces of protective paper on my art work station which I save after covered in my this and that’s, for projects like this. It just so happened, the umbrella shape was upside down. I thought “let it rain”. I LoVe getting wet and dancing in the rain rather than cowering to all the woe that demands we not only PAY for with our attentions but can get riled and helpless. I am fortunate to have great friends with sanity, action and empathy up their sleeves. I thought, “With Friends like these, who needs an umbrella? Ha!’ Voila! Dancing Up The Storm.

We are an artistic community that recognizes the intersectionality of all injustices 
and believes that art is essential to social change and more justice.
