MAN-AGE

(Performance)

Borderline Performance Festival, Blackfriars Crypt, Norwich

June 2013
Poultice

Set in a medieval crypt with two video projections, one of sea-water rushing past with a great deal of foam and the other a close-up of trees with a loud sound track of cicadas and distant voices.
I carried out a ritual using three galvanised buckets, water and soil, pouring one into the other until there was a mud which I used to anoint the bare parts of my body – arms, hands, feet, neck and head as well as the projections.
