Chelsea Knight: I Lay Claim to You

Chelsea Knight: I Lay Claim to You

In I Lay Claim to You (single channel video, 2009), Chelsea Knight invites choreographer Khalia Frazier to translate a text — appropriating themes from Margaret Mead's 1938 description of a Balinese cremation — into a dance. In an improvised rehearsal, Knight and Frazier perform attitudes of identification: claiming and reclaiming ownership of the dancers and of each other. The dancers operate as a Chorus, mediating and transcribing the process. Knight conflates tropes of cultural inscription with the situation of a rehearsal to engage difference and sameness as changeable, conditional and contested categories, whose instability is political.
