Remember Performance at SMALLS








This past Saturday I performed at SMALLS in Tallahassee, Fl. Remember was a piece to honor and reflect on the act of remembrance. I had many spools of thread at a table covered with white paper. I tied many threads onto all of my fingers occasionally writing down what they symbolized. Audience members were invited to sit across from me and have a thread tied onto one of their fingers and write down their remembrance. It was quite a beautiful interactive experience. My memory is already improving.

Images of the Panoffering installation at Tiny Tribe in Tallahassee's railroad square. Colleen Matthes and I painted the mural and the fabric and created the installation and altar areas with the exception of Jourdan Joly's sculpture.

Ubu Roi







Yesterday I performed as Daddy Ubu in Ubu Roi with my performance class/ fellow grad students. We decided to update the play to attempt to shock the audience the way Alfred Jarry did back in the late 1800's. Also we shortened it a lot and changed names and locations to better suit our audience. It was amazing. We should go on tour.

Chinese New Year Mural



Colleen Matthes and I joined forces on this mural for First Friday in Tallahassee at Tiny Tribe. So much fun! The photos above are taken by Sawtooth Triangle. The artists in front of the mural dressed for the year of the rabbit.
