Show announcement to follow!!!
Philip Errico (MISS PHILIP) is a performing artist, musician, and visual storyteller from Queens, New York. Their work draws on the monotony of suburban and urban life, internet-mediated identities, and technological dependency–examining how these forces erode and reshape the psyche. Errico’s work explores internal fantasy as it emerges from overstimulation and isolation, shaped by the tension between inner experience and external reality. Their practice extracts lived experience into immersive, cross-disciplinary work that treats emotion like raw material: compressed, overheated, and occasionally volatile.
Moving fluidly between sound, performance, moving image, and spatial installation, Errico examines how bodies navigate environments on the edge of exhaustion and collapse. Their work often blurs boundaries between audience and performer, ritual and chaos, growth and decay. Discomfort functions not as an obstacle, but as an entry point–a way of paying attention. Immersed in cycles of screen saturation, dissociation, and compulsive consumption, Philip transmutes psychic paralysis into dire demonstrations of performance as a medium, using the body as a site of rupture, endurance, and refusal. Performance becomes a way to interrupt algorithmic time, externalize internal stagnation, and insist on presence through repetition, exposure, and physical risk.
Philip Errico is one half of the performance art group RUBBERMAID with Anna McCarthy, a flexible performance collective that reacts to current travesties. RUBBERMAID addresses the conditions of daily life surrounding labor, trash, and protest through fluid representations of dance, music, and movement. Philip has shown solo work at Tribeca Film Festival, Amant, Trans-Pecos, The Francis Kite Club, Fourth World, Hex House, and most recently performed in Munich, Germany at Sperling Gallery, Genezarethkirche in Berlin, and choreographed and performed in Anna McCarthy’s INVISIBLE BORDERS demonstration on the Odeonsplatz, Munich.
