Finding Herstory is a solo commissioned by the Stephen Petronio Company for the 2021 Bloodlines (future) Program, made possible, in part, by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts with support from Governor Hochul and New York State Legislature. Finding Herstory is inspired by Africanist forms such as reggae and dancehall that have contributed to the American dance landscape and shaped Fearon as an artist. It is the first solo in the “Finding Herstory Project,” a series of solos and group works that look at how cross-cultural movements, mainly stemming from the African diaspora, play a role in the development of contemporary dance and celebrate the forms that helped build American dance.​
