TAKING THE CURE

Taking the Cure (2017) is a presentation accompanied by photographic source material that explores natural hot springs as liberatory zones. Through a discussion of natural history, land use issues, indigenous traditions, and contemporary practice, Taking the Cure discusses natural hot springs as contingent spaces where social norms are suspended, catalyzing transformative intimacy and communion. Taking the Cure also takes the form of an essay published in the North American Review in 2020.
