Choreography: Hope Mohr Performer: Peiling Kao Sound: Ben Juodvalkis Video: David Szlasa Premiere: September 2014, Joe Goode Annex, San Francisco S(oft is)hard continues my interest in writing as integral to choreographic thinking. Starting at age nine, I kept a journal to hear my own voice. Journaling is a form of repetition, but also change: at some point, I no longer needed it. My last journal dates to 2000, when I landed my first contract with a professional dance company. As I birthed a public identity as an artist, a private writing self became less necessary. The process of making s(oft is)hard involved sifting through 89 journals spanning twenty years. I kept the first and last, but the rest went into the recycling bin. www.hopemohr.org
