Reflections


In May 2006, for The Other Side of the Glass at Art Saint Louis, I once again began to rethink how I approach performance art, encouraging the audience to participate as the performers. In Reflections, I created about 400 different nametags featuring stereotypical associations that we have of art opening attendees such as "Presuming to Infer Vast Amounts of Psychoanalytical Knowledge into the Emotional and Spiritual Well-being of the Artist through an Elaborate Personal Interpretation of the Visually Presented Means of Artistic Expression" or "I’m Just Laughing Because I Didn’t Get the Joke". By allowing the viewers to participate in creating the piece, it became a different experience each time it was performed.
