Eve: “Striptease”
Going from the light to dark and adding clothes felt like
a commentary to my piece and how it ended.
Good use of space, especially when this was spontaneous.
It felt like she was trying to escape, even though she
said to follow. Mysterious
Lucian: (The Mario Bros. Game)
Felt left out until someone was allowed to switch with
someone
People with the privilege versus the people that were not
allowed to “play”
Frustrating for people who could not see
Being able to interact with people but not directly with
the game
Beautiful noises of the game included with the yes &
no of the game
Carissa: (about body empathy)
This could easily be extended to the whole body
Reminded me of warming up your joints after being stuck
out in the cold
Seemed very painful and was hard to watch, but was unsure
where the pain was coming from
Rheumatoid arthritis… made me check my privilege
Elliott: (jazz gantlets)
Found Humor in the making of noise.
Could see the weight of the armor gloves as they were
being shaken and as the arms fell
Could make beginning more ceremonious and mimic the bow
at the end
Ben: (pickles)
3 solid sounds – the jar seal, the pickle against the
jar, the crunch of the pickle
Could see that he was disappointed that it didn't take
very much effort
Also had great humor with it
Anh: (stacking)
Inevitability of life being stacked up then falling down
I appreciate the personal connection to the objects
Precision was mixed with carelessness when stacking
Zoe'e: "Speak Poet"
Such a simple performance but I could have watched it forever
Made all of us clap at the end
The yelling was strong and committed
It naturally progressed and built up on itself
Madi: (yoga on leaves)
Was about nature and the human body together
Inspired by the performance endurance
Really relaxing and nice to watch
Alycia: "Stained with a Kiss"
Mad me think about how kisses and love fade or blow away in time
Unsure of when the ending would happen
Liked the intimacy of the space and feminine style
Reo: (making tea)
Simple and Specific
Great noise coming from the tea kettle
Why can't an everyday experience be art?
To me, was about the waiting and time
