Performance in the Den of Desire with Cholla Soledad

MixedMedia Talks

Cholla Soledad is a Fat, indigenous, disabled, queer, and her experiences are filtered through those lenses. She’s an academic dedicated to the pedagogy of experience. She teaches her witchcraft apprentices in the same way. She is an initiate of Anderson (Old) Faery witchcraft and lives a magical life in Oakland with two friends, two cats, two chickens, ancestors who throw things and a myriad of non-solids.
In this episode we explore what it means to be queer, seen as a monster, and queen of her realm, the vulnerability of the boudoir as performance space and time-based art, and making spaces for communion with self, God, audience, and descendants, the sacred responsibility of using ones' gifts, love letters to the whole self, in all its parts, and the power of bearing witness to one anothers' vulnerabilities.
