From his site:
WHY CARLA ROSSI?
My performance work confronts white supremacy, complacency, and the confusion of "mixed" identities - of living in-between, particularly sexually and racially. I'm interested in the edge - that line between satire and sincerity, between critique and reification - as a site where transgression and transformation occur. That's why I'm drawn to drag as artwork. Drag often reinforces heterosexist projections of what makes a "woman," but - as theorist Judith Butler argues - it can also expose the cracks in binary sexism by blurring (or queering) gender. Queer drag exposes gender as a performed historical construction - a set of appropriated cues, images, or gestures that culturally signify masculine and feminine - rather than as a biological reality.
The character I play, Carla Rossi, started as an art project in 2010 and has since turned into a full-fledged persona, body of work, and occupation. I prefer the term "drag clown" over "drag queen" because I'm not trying to emulate women. I'm more interested in Coyote-style trickery similar to the clown’s objective - a clown says one thing while doing the opposite. In that same way I use Carla as a tool for critique. When I perform as her I wear whiteface in direct allusion to whiteness, clowning,

When Looking for Tiger Lily comes to the Talking Stick Festival, audiences will meet Carla Rossi, a drag clown in whiteface and a fright wig. But don’t be afraid: she’s a trickster, a storyteller, and the living, outsized embodiment of all the cultural collisions and identity crises two-spirit interdisciplinary artist Anthony Hudson has experienced. Carla is part coyote figure, part PowerPoint-wielding speaker, and much more.

I hope it wont of course, but if i do, it was my before and after online activities. Seen some strange stuff lately. Yog is not suicidal. At least I would get to meet Seth Rich. Always have to look on the bright side. Everything goes to Family, and thank you all, just in case

Take a good look, and read one of his books. He never moves his hands too much, and are oversize. I can't show you the video because the search engines are working overtime to take them down. If anyone waned to discredit any conspiracy movement as they call it nowadays, whoever they are, it would be to add some reptilian spaceyy people with some common new age garbage. I have to cook right now, otherwise I will starve to death. Worked this morning for a bit.
