PERFORMANCE, LIVE (Multiple iterations)
UNTITLED ART MIAMI
Effortlessly floating, the artist competes with various forces – gravity being only one of them – as he tests his physical endurance to stay ascendant while suspended vertically over a plinth. The risk of failure is omnipresent. He compels the viewer to witness the historical layers of pain and tenuous labor that constantly threaten the possibilities of the monumental: Respect, remembrance, and being seen.
