Pirate.Jenny.
Recharting.Viral..Routes...
A time traveling nomad. Wearable, self crafted tools, inspired by ancient sea mariner instruments shuttle Pirate Jenny back and forth between past and present on many adventures.
*Update 3/20* Where this pandemic will chart any of us? For me not to pose creative inquiry in this new viral paradigm is a disservice to myself and the collective, celebrated artistic social majic of around all of us. .
Bit by bit, I seek to recontextualize Pirate Jenny; authentically and sparingly using tech/media platforms to uplift myself and others; re/connecting with no impetus of "likes" or need to conform.
As always, Pirate Jenny presents an evolving platform with t/hey/r various time travel tools, navigating through trauma towards healing continuums. Recently, I've taken radically huge steps to see ongoing and accumulated stressful life events fully presenting as complex PTSD, ADHD, functional depression, low self esteem and severe burnout; all surrounded in silence, shame, suicidal ideations, social disconnect and isolation. Admittedly, this has manifested in my increased social withdrawal and dwindling presence online, which (at best and outside of this website) is barely engaged.
As best as I can, I commit to sharing with you all via new and developing movement based and sound works in progress and investigation, e.g: Under 6 Feet Apart-19, Biographie of Service and #PirateRadio - inviting all to reflect, celebrate, remember and connect during this viral shift.
Thank you for reading, for understanding and as always, stay tuned...
#LovePJ,
Shola Cole aka Pirate Jenny
