Description
Security Posture is a series of sidelong glances at bodily details, at intimacy, at forms of connection that structure lives and provide safety. Shards of fractured lyrics recombine into dense patterns of repetition and repositioning in order to register desire as well as coercion, mourning as well as doubt.
