Constructing Spaces Live Art Programme, at Construction Gallery

Here are a few photographs documenting my intervention at Construction Gallery as part of the live art programme on Sunday 18th March. Conversations were initiated between people inside and outside of the gallery using post-its, building up a visual diagram that mapped the dialogue that had taken place and filling the window over the course of the event.

The window of the gallery seemed to be a charged boundary between inside and outside, setting up relationships between people as viewer and viewed. This work aimed instead to use this limit as a place of exchange and playful dialogue, acting as a point of connection.

Performance at ArtEvict 05/2010

A box sits in a room, abandoned, pushed to the side. There’s a slow cutting noise, knife through cardboard and… pop! Out comes a finger. And then another finger, maybe a tongue, and a toe. Then nothing for a while. Then some more cutting. This time, a leg. Toe, foot, heel, ankle, calf… thigh. Who’s are these bits? Who do they belong to?

Is that my hand or yours? Your toe or my face?
Is that your eye or my belly button?
Is that your bottom or my cheek?
Is that your elbow or my tongue?
Is that my lips or your leg?
Is that my eyebrow or your chest hair?

This performance is a playful piece about the higgledy-piggledy in relationships, the place where we end and others begin, the place where we mix-up.
