DeconstructionI have spent a lifetime moulding myself into acceptable forms, some necessary, others for survival. The performance has become second nature now: surreal, yet expected. I no longer recognise myself. And while I continue to walk the same streets and talk to the same people, the performance will always stay the same.

Smashing apart a lifetime of performance ritual and discovering what lies beneath.

I want to inhabit a space where I'm not thinking about who is reading me or watching me, looking for clues or ammunition. I want to move through the world as a writer, noticing detail, without being noticed. Everything is fluid, and so am I .
