We’re delighted to have you with us for the opening of Neon studies no. 9. letinthelight!!! encapsulates the language, energy, and emotionality of rural South as the place in our artwork as well as the service work we are doing as an outgrowth of the love glo has for our home. Neon studies is the 4th initiative of March on Variations!, our iterative project that since October 2020, operated in the rural South at the intersection of social service, movement, and care.  

glo wants to especially share heartfelt gratitude with the community of Palmetto, Georgia for providing us a meaningful space for our newest artwork. In the left storefront window is Vyvyan Hughes original 〰️, like a gesture, gentle wave, in lavender neon. In the right storefront window is  letinthelight!!!, our founder lauri stallings handwritten piece bent by Blaze at The Neon Co., and composed of eight neon colors, in this order: pink, hot orange, orange, clear gold, aqua, turquoise, horizon blue, and lavender.

glo creates work that requires action, fearlessness, and a boundless capacity for connection. glo practice is deeply rooted in, and reflective of, her Southern identity and culture. It is an affirmation that beloved community is formed not by the eradication of difference but by the acceptance of each of us claiming who we are and how we move in the world. Drawing from the humanity of living, and landscape, our choreography manifests as a dance of curved lines that echo the environments surrounding us. In glo‘s choreography mapping, dance implies modes of embodiment and engagement, where domains of animal, land, and human overlap with each other. Our work makes it possible for us to imagine the South in ways that invoke a more explicit and sensory experience. Always, always, glo projects and initiatives are entirely free and public.

March on Variations! is made possible with major support from Fulton County Community Services Fund.
