Interactive Sculpture / Performance, 2020-2021.

 

This form emerged directly out of a dream I had in the summer of 2019. Although the emotional attachment to the object in the dream was unclear at the time, the year-long process of its creation induced a strenuous and temperamental relationship that surpassed an object-body experience, and entered an interpersonal realm. The object became a creature with a livelihood and desires of its own -- a creature of torment that revolves around the weight of unwanted memories.
