Brick Performance
performance piece involving bricks and stairs
7 hours
Spring 2008

In this performance piece my partner and I went up and down stairs, moving bricks, from 8 AM to 4 PM. We tag-teamed it; one sat in contemplation on a bench while the other worked. At half hour marks, we switched places. There were only four bricks going back and forth, resulting in repetitive, pointless labor.

Many thanks to Ryan Dunne, Kyle Freeman and Zoe Keller for their help on this project.
