Carriage Bearance Severance constitutes a trilogy of extremely physical, provocative performances by Matty Davis and Ben Gould created between 2015 and the present, and marks the trajectory of a relationship forged by shifting need, desire, and growth.

Davis and Gould’s work together began as an investigation of reliance, control, and care. Davis is an artist and choreographer engaged in collaborative, embodied explorations of the tension between our fragility and our fortitude.

After the sudden and late development of Tourette Syndrome, Gould’s practice adapted to harbor an investment in the body - exploring loss of control, resistance, and energy systems within and outside our physiology. With the body as a source, Gould’s multidisciplinary practice is driven by his neurological condition, providing a choreographic motor and ideological framework for projects ranging from site-specific performances to sculpture and film.
