Hommage to VALIE

 

Hommage to VALIE is a performance document of a sculpture I created and wore as a body camera harness. Taken from Valie Export's Adjunct Dislocations II, this was an attempt to re-interpret the artist's work with a masochistic undertone. The harness was created out of steel and designed to latch on to my neck, forcing me to constrict my torso as it cut into me as I walked. The piece was addressing the compulsive urge to document daily experiences and how it affects an individual's perception of space.
