Three distinct industrial/immigrant neighborhoods, currently municipal and state-owned properties, mirror the absence of the physical and social fabric my family and hundreds of others once lived in. Using photography, the architectural landscape of Route 18, blended with family memories, dear friends' artistry, and primary resource research, I offer choreography that remembers the Italian and Jewish neighborhoods that Urban Renewal transformed.

"Recognition combusts when history’s mirror is broken
A retelling that’s distracted, impacted, refracted light is unfocused
Being seen requires good lighting, a stage, and, gods please,
A willing audience excited to also be seen
Learned that at the Z,
New Bedford High School, Block D
Popped cherries at 20 Cent Fiction, oh, Rocky!
Being seen’s not just drama, the high-performance arts,
Survivors of Colonization, the Red and Lavender Scare, to start
Civil Rights Protest Leaders and AIDs caregivers grew beyond their scars"
-Excerpt from "Recognition" written for DATMA's Being Seen 2024-2025
