‘It (Fritha's performance) was so alive, buzzing, contagious energy like an ebb and flow or waves and currents. Amazing,’ Emma Cousin (artist & curator)

I find myself being ambiguous.

Intuitive assemblings

queer handlings

collectings

sourcing

getting lost,

fluid finds

improvisational and make up as I go along

refindings

I’m a fan of water

river

floor

bath

Watery attempts

at elsewheres

Sightings,

writings

sitengs

sittings

citings

losing my way

playing along

following feathers

Shying away

shying towards

Attempting timings

transistories

climatising myselves
