In the Heels Of

"The birth of a goddess

It was itchy dusty and dull.

Spiderwebs

Smell of wet old moldy Haves wood

Strength

Steal Rubber smears my feet.

Black

Scrunching my skin.

Red

Breathing and sniffling was hard to do.

Air

I reached slowly for the rim.

a fresh breeze of freedom.

Red black and air”

OOZING Multimedia Artist Kledia Spiro's most recent body of work, on display at Boston Sculptors Gallery through Oct. 1 as part of Donna Dodson's "SHEROES" exhibit, is a series of video performances she calls "Oozing." It examines the weighty responsibility of family legacy and inheritance. On Sept. 1, she presents a live performance, "In the Heels Of," which showcases how we stand on the shoulders of those who have come before us.
