Failing/Flying is a continuing series of performative video explorations into the natural and manmade world. This work is about breaking through the boundary of solitude with my body. I use repetition of simple actions to highlight the poetry of the unfolding of time. These actions mostly originate from desires I had as a child, but could not be expressed until now. For me, these pieces are about the ongoing struggle to connect with people, places and things, and the correlating difficulty of making sense of the world.
I attempt to physically and emotionally connect with a rock in The Rock.
In Wonder, I attempt to stuff two loaves of Wonder Bread in my mouth at one time.
What happens when a girl, a car, and a bar of cheap margerine meet up?
A Ice Cream cake, slowly melts off the top of my head in Cake Melt.
In this excerpt of Collect/Recollect, I attempt to name every commercial store off the top of my head in under five minutes.
In The Mash I spend a day at the beach.
In Game Face, I repeat the word, "Love" while interacting with a badmintion racquet in the studio
