In this episode we discuss her experiences with an endurance performance and how she used that as a foundation for an investigation into understanding culture, the body, advertising and desire. She uses installation to pull together varied creative explorations into a cohesive and meaningful whole and discusses her creative practice, teaching pedagogy, why writing is essential to discover the truth of one's work and celebrates the opportunity to make work at the Red Line contemporary Art Center.

Do you have painful daydreams about food while staring down your 8 ounces of green juice?
Finally, the solution is here. Juice Cleanse is the answer to the answer; the cure for the cure. This experiential, experimental treatment reestablishes the sacred relationship between mind and body, all in the relaxing spa environment you deserve. Gut flora will once again flourish, toxins with retreat back to their mysterious strongholds, and no matter the level of physical suffering of your body, your mind will be sated.
Juice Cleanse is a lifestyle choice that applies not only to cold-pressed beverages, but to all aspects of modern living. The technology is simple: by pampering yourself in your internal psychological spa, you are comforted in mind and by extension, body. Simply put, soothe your mind and your body will follow.
