With over 10 years of experience as a facilitator, Elioa crafts encounters that investigate the relationships between personal needs and communal truths. Heavily influenced by queer art lineages, Elioa\u2019s work melds critical theory, camp, and drag in participatory performances that question audiences\u2019 relationships to each other, power, and the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elioa\u2019s previous performance<strong> <em>Strange Utterances<\/em><\/strong> was a queer grieving ritual exploring invitation, haunting, and loss through clay sculpture, participation, and choreographic score.
