"‘Mama, your legs’ is the first moving piece I ever made. As outrageous and wayward as I thought I was being by making this moving piece, there’s some- thing important about reaching out to places that are wayward, outrageous, and downright stupid in the way they look and behave."
- Ursula von Rydingsvard
