Becoming who you are is a process of revealing, changing, and reveling in the skin you're in.
Never released photos from Shelby Perry and Suarfotos of Red Shores suspension performance 'Becoming' at Torture Garden NYC for Pride at Capitale in 2023.
The performance involved live rigging of a lotus suspension that went up in a column of scarlet satin over 20 feet in the air. The fabric dropped, revealing a figure, who proceeded to shed layers of costume to reveal another form. The performer partially cut themselves down mid-air, changing the suspension from a seated lotus to a vertical position. Coming down to earth, Red Shores danced and loved and played before again ascending and revealing long red sleeves, dancing above the heads of the crowd.
