Performed at the Alice Gallery - a former brothel in Duwamish territory. In Seattle, Washington, sex work was an integral part of the early economy and workers often listed their occupation as "seamstress". Seamstress honors these sisters of the cloth through a site-specific performance of BODYWARP at the Alice Gallery, located in Seattle's Hamilton building - a former brothel in the Georgetown neighborhood, an early red light district.
