Thesis: Lion dance : how to surrender responsibly
Liondance! is a journey of a woman with panic disorder seeking an ancient guardian god in the present. Drawing from the folklore depiction of the lion, she hysterically pursues her desire to find her god. Adopting shamanistic values from history is followed by mourning her own anxiety and finding a guardian in herself, which leads the narrative to hint at how fear sustains life.
