This book is devoted to tracing the variety of ways that theatre, theatricality, and performance are embedded in Hollywood cinema as screened stages. A screened stage is the literal or metaphorical appearance of a stage on screen. When the Hollywood style emerged in cinema history it traumatically severed the entwined relationship between film and theatre. The book makes the argument that cinema longs for theatre after that separation. The histories of stage and screen persistently crisscross one another making their separation problematic. The screened stage from the end of the nineteenth century until now offers a miniaturized version of cinema and theatre history. Moments of the stage within the screen compress historical styles and movements into saturated representations on film. Such examples overflow the cinematic screen into singular manifestations of presentness. Screened stages uncover what it means to be simultaneously present and absent. This book would be of great interest to students and scholars of theatre, film, dance, and performance.

Dō-In is an ancient traditional exercise for the cultivation of physical health, mental serenity, and spirituality. Over the last 5,000 years, it has served as the origin of such well-known disciplines as shiatsu, acupuncture, moxibustion, yogic exercises, and meditation. Literally meaning to pull and stretch, Dō-In originated as a way of achieving longevity and attaining the highest potential of mental and spiritual development. Dō-In techniques are a series of motions designed to harmonize body systems. The Dō-In Way details the fundamental aspects of this exercise, which involves breathing, posture, and self-massage and manipulation to stimulate body systems. The gentle application of pressure on the body’s meridians corresponds with physical processes, and allows for the conditioning of internal organs. This is a comprehensive handbook to an ancient system of movement designed to enhance physical, mental, and spiritual health.

A selection of pastel drawings and photographs made during the past year. The title is inspired by the continuity of the artist's artistic practice as a thread woven into her life during her pivotal year of 2014. At that moment, the artist spend most of her efforts traveling between London and Sweden, as well as spending a few months in india and Finland. In time, the drawings came to constitute a personal diary, representing on paper a reflection inspired by observations of atmospheres, colors, and elements. Alongside these drawings, the book contains a selection of photographs taken in the same period. Whereas the drawings are interior impressions of these transformational experiences, the photographs are the exterior documentations. The photographs come to light from the outside, and the drawings reach the world from inside the mind and body. This book is a meeting ground of these shared and yet personal worlds, as the pages allow both of these exposures to weave infinitely through each other, representing a vastness of interdependent subtleties. the works were made between 2013 and 2014 while traveling and living in Italy, Sweden, Oman, India, Finland, and London.
