LA-based theater director, choreographer, filmmaker, dancer, and surfer J’aime Morrison describes the experience of losing her husband Jim to cancer as one that “unmade” her. In the slow process of remaking herself, she turned to film—a discipline that was then new to her. Her instincts told her the learning curve and necessity of a team would help her get back into her body. And, that film would help her share the multisensory story of how surfing and the sea were healing her. In this Infinite Crescendo Conversation, the Cal State Northridge professor tells Carly about her short film Upwell, and about her Mourning Surf and movement-for-grief retreats, which help others find what their bodies are feeling. Together, they listen, hold, and honor those embodied emotions—while they ride the waves.
