An Act of Simultaneous Looking
Silicone, Thermoplastic, Epoxy Resin, Acrylic Paint and Mixed Media
2018
Two flesh-tinted, wearable thermoplastic pipes (3ft long, diameter of 7,5 inches) are attached criss-crossly at 60 degree angle. Two performers wear tool on their heads while standing still in space.
The performance requires physical endurance within confined proximity of the binding object. While engaged in the same act of looking with two "lenses" that cross, one’s perspective remains blocked from the other's – who is ironically the “closest” person to them in proximity.
Performance by Shannon Stovall and Henry Sekimotto
