CROQUIS
Croquis a new durational performance, staged and costume designed by Ralph Escamillan. The solo explores the idea of a “croquis”—a quick, expressive sketch of a garment or ensemble that brings an artist's design to life. In this case the pencil is the body and the paper becomes a modular canvas. The solo tussles with one's desire to imprint and archive themself into space.

MY HOUSE
MY HOUSE (an excerpt) is a new performance work by FakeKnot and Ralph Escamillan, based around the HOUSE that is represented through the familial physical bonds found in Ballroom. Ralph, aka Kiki Legend OA Mother Posh Gvasalia/ Canadian Mother Posh Basquiat, uses the motif of trompe l’oeil to express the feeling of self-actualization that is manifested on the Ballroom floor. Truly bringing the BALL from runway to the stage, this piece features a team of Canadian Ballroom performers – Symba Mulan 007, Solar Siriano 007, and Father Jaws Siriano Balenciaga.
