The past which is the present in the mind of an old woman

Performance

Intergalactic Studio, Artscape Youngplace

2014, Toronto

Video Stills by Augusto Monk

In this performance piece, I presented a series of actions. Audience members randomly chose some numbers from a deck of playing cards which produced a phone number. I, then called this number to have a conversation with the person on the other end.

Another action involved a wooden structure I’d built. I began the action by placing a lit candle underneath a twine that held two eggs (filled with milk) on opposite sides. I manipulated a cheesecloth for the entire duration it took for the candle to burn off the twine letting the eggs fall and break.
