In this episode, you'll hear about: 🌟 How Eisa didn’t continue on her “practical” path as a visual artist but instead turned her fascination and exploration of movement into a political statement. 🌟 The body as a site for investigation and learning more about the self and society through memories embedded in our muscles. 🌟 How people can create language with our bodies and movement. 🌟 The power and agency of owning your body. 🌟 How Eisa faces the challenge of learning a new skill set with each new project she takes on—becoming a beginner each time.
