Performance at Performer Stammtisch

March 8, 2010, Berlin, Germany

Roadside Attractions makes a another appearance, this time in Berlin, Germany during the monthly series, Performer Stammtisch. This site-specific performance will continue to explore the same methodology used during previous residencies - carrying out micro-interventions where filmed "flash landmarks" become the backdrop to a gallery performance.

As negotiating new terrain is the central premise of this work, I continue to focus on parallels between performance and travel, and examine comprehensive states of "performative consciousness," investing "performative" presence within multiple spaces / times. Still rough around the edges, the video work indicates a hasty editing process, but the point isn’t to make a perfect, polished work, it is rather to underscore an urgency in production and presentation; to visually embody the disjointed process of “arriving.”
