It's March 19th, 2022.
It's 11 o'clock in the morning.
I'm nine feet tall and covered in 2,000 mirrors, top to bottom.
On my feet are stilts, brand new that I've never worn before.
On my head is a mirrored globe with the continents and latitude and longitude lines cut out.
I can see through them.
On my body is a brand new custom stilt suit with mirrors that I've had designed.
And in my hands are silk chiffon fans.
They're about five feet long, a blue and white ombre.
And I'm feeling really great and really happy because everything's working well, particularly because it's freezing cold.
The stilts are working well, the headpiece is perfectly in place, and I'm able to grip my hands tightly with the fans billowing out behind me.
And I'm feeling really secure.
I'm having to take really long strides in my stilts because I'm trudging through snow.
And the hardest part of all is this ferocious wind that is blasting into my face because I'm walking across the top of a glacier in Antarctica.
So four months earlier, I get the call from a client.
And they say, do you want to go on this perform with us on the expedition cruise to Antarctica for 10 days?
And at this point, I've been working for myself as a performance artist and costume designer for about eight years.
But this is definitely the most exciting thing that's happened to date.
So I'm really thrilled, but also I feel
this sinking sensation in my stomach because I realize this is going to be very difficult for me.
