"Count the Hellos" (1/3)
Performance art inspired installation. Chinese pole, body, patience, string, whiteboard. 2024.
Hello.
This performance is a representation of the endurance, and the mental exertion as a result of coasting through life, when not questioning why we do what we do. It is an exercise in pushing the boredom of routine to the point of a ritualistic practice, losing the meaning of actions in the endless starting over. The artist is keeping track of the “progress” of an unknown, incomprehensible, and most likely meaningless task. The public is invited to record their thoughts with a word, creating a shared poem between all participants. Goodbye.
This was such a fun project ! Came to me out of nowhere when researching for our 3rd year Research and Performance Project. I want to thank my beautiful classmates for this amazing evening we put together, to
@valentinalacma for the support, and I really hope I get to perform this again somewhere.
