			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m thrilled to be back in Berlin for the summer.</p>
<p>I will be available to travel around Europe for bookings at art events and festivals, Pride, queer, and sex events. </p>
<p>I would love to exhibit/perform at art spaces/galleries/museums, speak on panels relating to art, sex, sex work, and porn, and present at universities or colloquia.</p>
<p>I am currently working on a cutting edge new performance series: <strong>Biological Clock</strong>, a part of <a href="http://sadielune.com/projects/"><em>Teaching Myself to Love </em></a>that deals with issues of queer perspectives on time and fertility and the intersection of sexuality and parenthood. If you are interested in collaboration, let me know- particularly if you are an artist/sex worker/queer with sperm.</p>
<p>Contact me at sadielune (@) gmail.com  if you would like to book me for your event!</p>
<p>Stay tuned for new visual art, writing, and performance archives related to <strong>Teaching Myself to Love</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>http://www.transmodernfestival.org/2010/?cat=16</p>
<p>Sunday, April 18 2010<br />
Fell&#8217;s Point: Thames and Broadway<br />
<strong>SirenStroll- In Memory of Heels Clacking Cobblestone</strong><br />
costume designed by <strong>Rachel Znerold</strong></p>
<p>SirenStroll will conjure the ghost’s of the sex workers of Baltimore’s distant and recent past in an interactive ritual streetwalk. The procession-of-one will explore the mythologies vs. realities of prostitution, while honoring the history of Baltimore’s sex workers and bringing visibility to continuing violence against sex workers. While tourists pay to hear about the ghosts of prostitutes that haunt Fell’s Point from days of yore, women and other workers are still dying trying to make a living in Baltimore; in 2008, five women who worked as prostitutes were brutally killed.</p>
<p>As sex workers are often depicted as sirens, calling men to their doom, as well as people who live between worlds of legality, class, and desire/repulsion, I will personify a ghostlike mermaid appointed with items symbolic of the power, skills, and vulnerability of sex workers. Using repetitive actions and verbalizations, I will actively solicit donations for my roving altar to the dead sex workers of Baltimore, especially those fallen in the line of duty. I will transverse the entire region of Thames street, back and forth along Fell’s Point, building an altar on wheels as I go, adorned with objects obtained from the exchange with tourists, locals and other artists.</p>
